Maxfield Parrish (July 25, 1870 - March 30, 1966) was an American painter and illustrator.
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he began drawing for his own amusement as a child. His given name was Frederick Parrish but he later adopted the maiden name of his maternal grandmother, Maxfield, as his middle name. He later adopted Maxfield as his professional name. His father was an engraver and landscape artist, and young Parrish's parents encouraged his talent. He attended Haverford College and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. He entered into an artistic career that lasted for more than half a century, and which helped shape the Golden Age of illustration and the future of American visual arts.
Launched by a commission to illustrate L. Frank Baum's Mother Goose in Prose in 1897, his repertoire included many prestigious projects including Eugene Field's Poems of Childhood (1904) (see illustration) and such traditional works as Arabian Nights (1909). Books illustrated by Parrish are highly sought-after collectors items.
