Marguerite Henry's classic book Album of Horses was published in 1951. The main illustration painting for each breed also appeared in the 1964 Portfolio of Horse Paintings. The Chincoteague Pony is one of the 24 breeds in the book and a main focus of the section is about Misty.
The Chincoteague Pony painting is my favorite of Wesley Dennis's illustrations of Misty. I have the version from the Portfolio framed and hanging in my home.
