American Artists and Their Literary Subjects
Monday, December 7, 2020 at 1:30pm CST From the earliest years of the Colonial Period to well into the 20th Century, many American artists looked to both European and domestic writings as the source and subject of their art. They produced paintings, prints and book illustrations of subjects both high-brow and popular.
