Description
"First published in 1964 and revised in 1984, this is the third edition of The Illustrator in America. It now goes back in time to the Civil War when artist reporters made on-the-spot pictures of the military action for publication by newspapers and periodicals of the day.". "Following the improvements in printing and the attractions of better reproductions, the turn of the century brought a "Golden Age of Illustration" spearheaded by Howard Pyle, Edwin Austin Abbey, A. B. Frost and others, who brought it to a high art. Illustrators were celebrities along with the authors whose works they pictured.". "This history of 140 years of illustration is brought up to the millenium year of 2000 when new computer-generated techniques and digital printing is creating another revolution in this evolving, dynamic art form."--BOOK JACKET.
