The Book Illustrations of Wharton Esherick
By Henry Wessells
Wharton
Esherick, recognized as a key link between the pre-1916 Arts and Crafts
Movement and the renewed interest in the crafts following the Second
World War, is most widely known for his sculptures and non-traditional
furniture designs from the late 1920s and 1930s onward. In his long and
varied career, Esherick (1887-1970) joined the traditions of the
decorative arts with those of the fine arts. (showing 500 of 18652 characters). |
