Great little documentary on the history of illustration for the New York Times Op Ed page:

  1. That's neat!
    A lot of those images flash by way too fast to fully appreciate them. Fortunately, I have reproductions of several of them elsewhere.
    It's especially good to see Brad Holland well-represented. He's done so much for the field of illustration and continues to be a leader in so many ways.

    I think it's interesting to note how often words like visceral, subversive, and emotional come up in discussions about editorial art. I never hear the words reality, truth, or responsibility. I guess it doesn't matter what you say as long as you've pissed someone off. ;—)
