Download or read book Howard Pyle written by Jill P. May and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best remembered as an influential illustrator and teacher, Howard Pyle (1853-1911) produced magnificent artwork and engrossing books and magazine stories about King Arthur, Robin Hood, swashbuckling pirates, and the American Revolution. He also completed public murals and trained many famous artists and illustrators at the turn of the twentieth century, including N. C. Wyeth and Jessie Willcox Smith. This engaging portrait of the influential American artist, teacher, author, and muralist is the first fully documented treatment of Pyle's life and career. Drawing on numerous archival sources including Pyle's own letters to provide new perspectives on his life, Jill P. May and Robert E. May reveal Pyle to be a passionate believer that art should be understood and appreciated by the general public. His genteel values and artistic tastes shaped not only his own creative output but his influential work as a teacher, first at the Drexel Institute of Art, Science and Industry in Philadelphia and later at his own school in Delaware's Brandywine River Valley. May and May also show him to be far more supportive of women artists than is generally believed, explaining how he deployed club memberships and relationships with publishers and politicians to advance the prospects of his students. Duly measuring his influence on later artists, May and May detail his quest to lead a distinctively American school of art freed from European models. Amply illustrated with evocative photographs and color reproductions of his own and his students' work, this exceptional volume presents Howard Pyle's creative career and legacy for American popular culture as it has never been seen before.

Download or read book Albert Dorne written by Manuel Auad and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a very real sense, Albert Dorne's life was a literal manifestation of the Horatio Alger tale and a model of the American Dream come true. Born into abject poverty at the dawn of the 20th Century, Albert Dorne rose to prominence and privilege through the application of sheer determination, an instinctive grasp of solid business practices and a keen understanding of human nature combined with a native talent for drawing. Despite dropping out of school as a teen, he was and known as one of the more erudite men in his field and widely recognized as the founder of the Famous Artists School. A self-taught artist, by the time of his death in 1965, Dorne had established himself as perhaps the preeminent, highest paid illustrator of his day-one whose services were sought after by the biggest companies and best magazines for his memorable advertizing art and dynamic illustrations. A self-made man, he enjoyed the finest things that his millions could buy, and yet he never forgot his roots and remained a champion of the handicapped and the working man to the end. Now, for the first time, the entire career of this complex titan of education, industry and illustration is presented in the pages of one book. Featuring an informative essay by David Apatoff, an insightful introduction by author-illustrator Howard Munce, who knew the artist, and a graphic foreword by celebrated Mad magazine artist, Jack Davis, this volume captures the scope and breadth of Albert Dorne's many accomplishments. Key points: This is the first and only career-spanning survey of Albert Dorne's career and his prodigious artistic output. Featuring hundreds of full color images of the artist's work, many reproduced from the original art, almost every page teems with the colorful, lively illustrations of this master craftsman. Showcases examples from every stage of Dorne's professional life, including advertising art, editorial illustrations, and posters created to support the armed services during World War II. Albert Dorne consorted with the best and brightest, with presidents and starlets, and yet he never lost touch with the common man and woman, whose concerns infuse his artwork. One of the most important and influential artists of his era, almost forgotten today, is brought to vibrant life on the page.
