Fortune, April 1937
Returned to lender
This work of art was on loan to the museum and has since been returned to its lender.Fortune magazine made its debut in February of 1930, a mere few months after the stock market crash. Seeking to create a publication that was about business but appealed to those interested in culture, its founder, Henry Luce, hired young, esteemed writers to author critical human-interest articles; photographers such as Margaret Bourke-White and Walker Evans to take pictures for its pages; and illustrators to create remarkable covers referencing travel, industry, the stock market, and other subjects that appealed to the magazine’s affluent readers.
