Post-depression America was in
desperate need of a defining iconography that would lift it out of the
black and white doldrums, and it came in theform of Gil Elvgren's
Technicolor fantasies of the American dream. His technique-which earned
him a reputation as "The Norman Rockwell of cheesecake"-involved
photographing models and then painting them into gorgeous
hyper-reality, with longer legs, more flamboyant hair and
gravity-defying busts, and in the process making them the perfect
moral-boosting eye-candy for every homesick private.
