2. Anders Zorn
(Swedish, 1860 - 1920)
Zorn was one of the most acclaimed portrait painters of his era. He painted
three American Presidents, nobility, the Swedish king and queen, family,
friends, and self-portraits. Zorn is also famous for his nude paintings.
The paintings have the freedom and energy of sketches, using warm and cool
light and shade areas with a profound understanding of color and reflected light.
His use of the brush evokes reflected and transmitted light (especially in his
paintings of water).

14. Arthur Rackham

children’s book illustration.

20. Edmund Dulac

atmosphere created by
color.

24. Gustav Doré

31. Stephen Scott Young
(American, 1957 - )
Best known for watercolors and etchings evoking everyday life in the southern U.S.
and in The Bahamas.
Often focusing on themes including coming of age, class, race, and social
conditions, Young's work is noted for its realist use of watercolor and eloquent
simplicity of subject matter done in the American realist tradition.
Young's attention to detail and composition are reminiscent of Thomas Eakins,
Winslow Homer, Edward Hopper, and Andrew Wyeth.
