history | charles dana gibson
charles dana gibson was an american illustrator, who is best known for his creation of the gibson girl, which was an iconic representation of an independent euro-american woman at the turn of the 20th century. a gibson girl was described as “a member of upper-middle-class society, always perfectly dressed in the latest fashionable attire appropriate for the place and time of day. the gibson girl was also one of the new, more athletic-shaped women, who could be found cycling through central park, often exercised, and was emancipated to the extent that she could enter the workplace. in addition to the gibson girl’s refined beauty, in spirit, she was calm, independent, confident, and sought personal fulfillment.”
