Jay Scott Pike - Harem Captive

Jay Scott Pike (American, 1924 - 2015) was born in Philadelphia and enrolled in the New York Art Students League at the tender age of 16.

He was a multi-talented multi-media artist, drawing comics for DC and Marvel where he drew for Lorna Queen of the Jungle, Kid Colt, Sheena and Jann of the Jungle. Later in life he worked on Star Wars.

In 1956 he began working for A.Fox company, continuing the iconic 'panties down' series started by his predecessor Art Frahm.

A classic piece of mid-century pin-up and narrative art, Harem Captive captures a striking balance of glamour, drama, and vintage Orientalist aesthetic. Painted in rich oil tones, this piece features Pike’s signature glamorized figurative work set against an evocative, moody backdrop.

Housed in an elegant vintage-style ornate gold wooden frame with an inner cream-colored linen border that complements the warm tones of the artwork.

This beautiful original oil is perfect for collectors of mid-century pin-up, pulp cover art, or classic narrative illustration.
