Known as Alberto Vargas he was born in Arequipa, Peru in and is probably the most famous of the pin-up artists. His paintings regularly sell for many thousands of pounds and have been printed millions of times. When the outbreak of World War I forced him to leave his studies in Europe and head for home a stop off in New York City would change his life - he stayed in the United States. Early in his career he worked as an artist for the Ziegfeld Follies and many Hollywood studios which included featuring a near-naked Zita Johann, in a pose of desperation, on the poster for the film The Sin of Nora Moran. From March , until the end of the war, Esquire ran these on the back cover of the military version of the magazine, many of which ended up copied as nose art on World War II aircraft. He then struggled financially until Hugh Hefner, the founder and Editor-in-Chief of Playboy, who had previously worked for Esquire, began to use his work regularly from With this exposure to a new audience Alberto's career once again flourished.

Early in the 20th century, an American visual style was invented by the Peruvian-born artist Alberto Vargas. The "Vargas Girls" he painted, as they were later known, appeared in magazines, advertisements, and calendars, and on posters and airplanes -- and for all he painted, infinitely more were created by others working in Vargas-inspired style. Vargas wasn't the only pin-up artist -- George Petty and Gil Elvgren deserve mention as well -- but the Vargas Girl brand he created has endured as the highest example of the genre.
