This course focuses on printed art in America from pre-1890 through the 1950’s. The influence of illustrators on the attitudes and customs of their times is the focus. Using a format of study by decade, the course explores the making of pictures to tell a story regardless of medium. A more theoretical approach is used in discussions of the great teachers and of women in illustration. This course satisfies the General Education requirement.
