Description:Then and Now – The Seductive Genius of C. D. Gibson, is an illuminating examination of Charles Dana Gibson’s social satire at the turn of the 20th century. Gibson is most often recognized for his drawings of the iconic Gibson Girl, yet his body of work scrutinized the wider social conscience of the United States as suffrage, bitter politics, war, and economic battles were the hot issues of his era. Then and Now follows the development of Charles Dana Gibson and his artwork as the Gilded Age gave way to the Progressive Era, and reveals his powerful commentaries during World War I. Compiled from detailed research of his drawings, interviews, stories, and articles from more than a century ago, this book paints a picture of a man who attempted to change his surrounding world to the better. Illustrated with over 250 examples of his finest artwork, the reader is also entertained by many drawings that were “just a cartoon”, meant to bring a smile to the audience. Sketches of the masses around him also provide a unique and many times surprising perspective of their habits, lifestyles, and personalities.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
