The cover of Motor magazine for April, 1919.
There's a lot going on with this cover, more than the causal viewer might suppose now. While today we might think she's rather overdressed for what she's doing, at the time this was a revolutionary image. She's dressed in the new style, free of corsets and the like, engaging in an outdoor activity as, apparently a town woman, and making use of the automobile to do it. No man is to be seen in the image anywhere.
