Diana and the Golden Ring – Fantastic Adventures March 1950 Cover
Painted for S. M. Tenneshaw's fantasy tale 'Diana and the Golden Ring,' this lush cover depicts a golden-haired goddess figure in a flowing white Greco-Roman dress, raising a white dove that clutches a glowing golden ring. A quiver of arrows at her hip marks her as the huntress Diana. Lurking in the shadowy foliage behind her, a leering faun-like creature watches with mischievous eyes — a dash of menace beneath the enchanted garden's dreamy beauty. Rich jungle greens, violet wisteria, and warm flesh tones define this peak Fantastic Adventures glamour-fantasy aesthetic.
A goddess, a magic ring, and a horned voyeur in the bushes — mythology never looked this dangerous. Classic Ziff-Davis glamour with just enough lurking menace to keep you turning pages.
