July 25 is the birthday of Maxfield Parrish from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Featured here is his illustration, “Cadmus Sowing the Dragon’s Teeth,” from the Greek myth. Parrish was particularly known for the vibrant colors he used in his artwork, and the hue “Parrish blue” was even named after him.
