Pen and ink.

Comment:
As was true of many illustrators of the period, Morgan came from a background in the newspapers. His ability to capture the essence of a story with relative ease and nonchalance set him apart from the generations to follow. He was easily the equal talent-wise of Everett Shinn, George Luks, John Sloan and George Bellows. Includes a copy of the book.

SOLD
