There are several footnotes in the text. To what do they refer? Smerdis of Tlön 14:47, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)
I think his death was 10th march 1966, not the 30th
I suppose I'll have to find my password eventually and log on. It's just too damn inconvenient not being able to create new pages. Any rate, could somebody do a redirect from Maxwell Parrish? A Google search indicats that I'm not the only person who was under the impression that's what his name was. -- 71.192.116.43 21:02, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
I think that there is a typepo in the near the end paragraph Technique and influence section. It states:
In 3011, Parrish was featured in a U.S. Post Office commemorative stamp series honoring American illustrators, including Rockwell Kent, Norman Rockwell, Frederic Remington, and 16 others.
I think that this really should state 2001 Please see:

Was Parrish really involved with the Art Students League? It seems like if he was there ought to be independent confirmation online. Nareek ( talk) 11:55, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
Parrish is listed in the Art Students League of New York's catalog - current (2008): [1] as a former instructor/lecturer. Modernist ( talk) 13:04, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
There is a large glass mosaic in the Curtis Center lobby in the Curtis Publishing Company building on Independence Square by Maxfield Parrish, with the glass by Louis Comfort Tiffany, that was the subject of legal and public controversy some years ago, when it was going to be sold and removed from the building. I don't have references readily to hand, but given the connections with Philadelphia, this work and the controversy should be mentioned somewhere. [1]

I see no mention of the golden proportions. If memory serves, most of his work was based on phi relationships; an earlier (2000?) Wikipedia article had a paragraph on this. 75.109.248.75 ( talk) 08:12, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
I removed the following section from the article. I think that it would be better suited on a page about Parrish's son, instead of on his page. The information also doesn't have sources. I just don't think it's best on this page.
Amgisseman(BYU) ( talk) 22:30, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
I removed the following paragraph because it seems a little subjective and not backed up by any facts or sources. If any one can find sources for this information, then it would be a great paragraph to include; however, as it stands, I just can't leave it in the article.

" his painting Daybreak is the most popular art print of the 20th century.[1]" this is not substantiated by the citation. It only says the most reproduced image, although this assertion is refuted by several other credible claims. In general, avoid superlatives unless they can be clearly substantiated.

Apparently I an not the only person who thinks that the landscape and other features of Rivendell in Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" seem to be inspired by Parrish's work. See here, and Ted Naismith, Tolkien illustrator, acknowledges Parrish as an influence. There are other mentions of the similarity to be found on twitter and reddit, but of course those are not sources. I also find movie reviews. I an not able to find a real source that I'd be willing to use in the article -- so I only suggest it here. Wastrel Way ( talk) Eric
