Featured is an original antique 1909 Edwardian glamour print illustrated by Maud Strum (also known as Maud Squire). This elegant early-20th-century portrait captures the refined beauty and flowing decorative style associated with the Art Nouveau era. The print measures 12.75" x 10” overall, with an image size of 12.5" x 9 5/8", and is in excellent condition for its age.
Maud S. Strum (Maud Squire) was an American artist and illustrator active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Closely linked with the Art Nouveau movement, she produced posters, book covers, and magazine illustrations characterized by graceful lines, stylized detail, and a soft, romantic aesthetic. Although not as widely remembered as some of her contemporaries, Strum’s work remains an important contribution to American illustration during the Edwardian and Art Nouveau periods.
This piece comes from the Chuck Olson Collection, a carefully assembled archive of more than 10,000 vintage prints gathered over 40 years. Chuck Olson traveled across the United States seeking unique images—especially those produced for calendars and advertising during the early 1900s.
