I originally posted this, thinking it was Cobb sliding and a vintage comparison to the two paintings. It's from the dust jacket of the 1933 Who's Who in Major League Baseball. However, while the fielder is clearly from the image, the sliding player isn't Cobb, the umpire is in a different spot and the stands are different.
