Alberto Vargas (1896–1982) was a noted painter of pin-up girls and erotica. Born in Peru, Joaquin Alberto Vargas y Chavez came to the US in 1916. He is perhaps most famous for his 16 years illustrating for Playboy magazine, during the 1960s and 70s.
His pictures would often portray, elegantly dressed, semi-nude to nude women of perfect proportionalities; large breasts, curved waists, trimmed pubic hair, etc. Vargas's artistic trait would be slender fingers and toes, the nails of which were often painted red.
He designed the cover of The Cars album Candy-O.
