Holy Crap Even More Artwork From Mad Men, Season 7 (Peggy Olson)
You might be sick of this after a few days
of relentless posting about the artwork in Mad Men, Series 7. There's a lot more
to cover though, so get ready. While everyone was mourning the loss of Robin Williams we missed
the passing of David Wiedman
whose prints were all over the Sterling Cooper Draper Yadda Yadda office.
Peggy's floral prints
Peggy has plenty of screen time this season and her office seems to be a place that the set
decorators chose to showcase several pieces from David Weidman. These prints and the
story behind them are
pretty well-known having been featured in a few LA Times articles.




I love the color and forms in these prints -- so much fun. Once I tuned-in to the artist and his catalog, I started seeing them all
over the place. You'll see them in the Artists Office and outside Roger Sterling's
office.
Peggy was sporting a Saul Bass poster
from the Second NY Film Festival at Lincoln Center (September
14-26, 1964). If you dig around, you can probably find one for
sale.



Peggy redecorates her office at some point in the season and the emphasis seems to shift toward these smaller prints. Some still
from David Wiedman.









Peggy's apartment like most of the living spaces is pretty drab. She has more of these sunflower shapes and other floral forms at
home.




Next, the rest of the Art Department.
