collectorsweekly: Before Rockwell, a Gay Artist Defined the Perfect American Male An interesting interview with a collector of Joseph Leyendecker imagery: I wasn’t buying Leyendecker’s work because I knew it would go up in price; I was buying it because I became obsessed with this man who had the gall to make his lover the icon of American masculinity. I was very interested in the construction of the masculine subject, and it gave me no end of tickles that the man who created icons like the Arrow man and the Chesterfield man was gay.
