published by University of Chicago Press, 1946.
how an artist struggled to maintain his integrity in the 20th century sloughs of art nouveau, to develop his craft into the finest draftsmanship America has seen,
Boardman Robinson (1876-1952) was a prominent American illustrator and political cartoonist known for his strong socialist views and influential teaching career. Born in Somerset, Nova Scotia, he spent part of his childhood in Wales before moving to the United States, where he pursued art education in Boston and later in Paris. Robinson began his professional journey as an art editor at Vogue and went on to illustrate for the Morning Telegraph and the New York Tribune, where he developed a distinctive style using black crayon and ink washes.
During World War I, Robinson became a political correspondent, covering significant events across Europe and contributing to leftist publications like The Masses, where his works often reflected his political convictions. His cartoon ?Making the World Safe for Capitalism? was notably scrutinized under the Espionage Act, leading to a trial that highlighted the tensions between art and politics during the war. In addition to his illustrations and cartoons, Robinson created notable murals, including those at the Department of Justice Building in Washington, D.C. and the RKO Building. He also taught at various institutions, influencing many artists throughout his career. Robinson's legacy includes contributions to significant literary works, showcasing his talent in both visual and illustrative arts.
