Norfolk and Western Magazine is published every month in Roanoke, Va. TRANSFORMING a black and white photograph-showing a welder at work inside of a Norfolk and Western locomotive firebox-into the dramatic and colorful painting reproduced on the front cover of this issue Is the achievement of Alexander Russo, a young artist who painted a number of N. & W. scenes while working in Roanoke, last year, under a fellowship from the Guggenheim Foundation. Mr. Russo has captured not only the fascination of the welding job, itself, but the beauty of workmanship which is expressed in this operation in the modern method of building a locomotive. Joining the throat sheet to the combustion chamber by electric welding is, of course, a substantial improvement over the old method, that of riveting the sections together.
During the recent war, Mr. Russo was a Navy combat artist who made sketches of the invasion of Normandy in which he participated. His works were exhibited by the Navy in Paris, New York and elsewhere. At present he is teaching advertising illustration at the New Orleans Academy of Art as well as doing a considerable amount of advertising art work for New Orleans business concerns.
