About this book

Charles Dana Gibson, the Man and His Art is a 1903 illustrated booklet from Collier's Weekly celebrating the most famous American illustrator of his day. Gibson (1867-1944) created the Gibson Girl, the confident pen-and-ink beauty who defined the American woman's image for two decades, and Collier's had just signed him to a contract of legendary size for his double-page drawings. The booklet pairs examples of his work with an account of his career at its peak. It is a period piece of the golden age of American illustration. Free PDF download available on BDeBooks.
