Children at Halloween Toyshop - Halloween Art Print

This delightful scene by Maginel Wright perfectly captures the eager anticipation of Halloween festivities. Although its exact origin is not definitively confirmed, we believe it may have graced the cover of a magazine, possibly either Woman's World or Woman's Home Companion. If you have any additional information about its source, please feel free to email our Brand & Content Manager at allison@laughingelephant.com. We're always enthusiastic about learning more about vintage illustration!

Maginel Wright Enright Barney (1881-1966), the younger sister of renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright, left an enduring artistic legacy as an American illustrator, particularly in the realm of children's literature during the early 20th century. Her artistic contributions extended beyond illustrating over sixty books, encompassing cover designs for prominent magazines of her era and the creation of patriotic posters during World War I. Her remarkable talent for producing high-quality illustrations in children's books set her apart, shaping the visual narratives of her time and enchanting readers of all ages.
