$100K Vargas pinup art leads $2 3 million Heritage illustration auction

$100K Vargas pinup art leads $2.3 million Heritage illustration auction Alberto Vargas (Peruvian/American, 1896-1982), Mara Corday, True Girl, February 1952. Watercolor on board, 30 x 20 inches. Sold for: $100,000.00. DALLAS, TX .- One of the most iconic and important pinup images ever created, Alberto Vargas Mara Corday, True Girl, February 1952, sold for $100,000 to lead Heritage Auctions’ April 30 Illustration Art auction to $2,297,692 in total sales. The model in the image, Mara Corday, is captured in the signature V-leg pose that was Vargas’s calling card in her second sitting for the artist – he lost the rights to the first, and other images he signed as “Varga,” in a years-long legal battle with Esquire magazine. Esquire sued the artist for the works signed Vargas in True but ultimately failed. This win and the publication of his nine True Girls including the present work revitalized the artist and his career.

Some say she has betrayed her young female fans by abandoning her baggy-jumpered, green-haired two-fingers to normative patriarchal beauty standards; others say it’s her body, her choice, and no one’s business but her own; while still others accuse Vogue of pressuring her into the look. (Although in the interview, Eilish stresses that the shoot was entirely her idea.)
