From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Nick Gaetano is a prolific illustrator known for his distinctive art deco style. He has designed for magazines, advertising, book covers, logos, posters, and hooked rugs. His work has been featured on a U.S. postage stamp. He is often considered to be a romanticist, or more accurately a Romantic realist.

Nick Gaetano created the 35th Anniversary Edition cover art for the works of Ayn Rand: Atlas Shrugged, The Fountainhead, Anthem, We the Living, Philosophy: Who Needs It, Capitalism: the Unknown Ideal, For the New Intellectual, The Early Ayn Rand, The Romantic Manifesto, and The Virtue of Selfishness. He also created The Ayn Rand Postage Stamp[1].

In 2002, the original art for the Anniversary Editions of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged sold at auction for $118,000.
