The artist’s signature, lower right

This beautiful oil on illustration board painting was created by artist and illustrator William Medcalf as an advertisement for Bavaria brand beer.

An inviting, rosy-cheeked brunette pin-up girl smiles while holding up a pilsner of delicious, refreshing Bavaria beer. She also wears Bavaria branded earrings.

This has been signed by the artist in the lower right corner of the painting. Professionally matted and framed, this piece is ready to display!

We believe this to be a published illustration, most likely for a premium calendar offered by Bavaria.
