Jazz Age Illustration
About the Program
Curator Heather Campbell Coyle will share highlights of the exhibit
Jazz Age Illustration. Organized by the Delaware Art Museum and now on view at the
Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, this is the first exhibition to survey the art of American popular illustration in the 1920s and ’30s. Illustrations originally published in
Vogue, Vanity Fair, The Saturday Evening Post, and in books by authors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald capture the vibrant era. Featured illustrators include E. Simms Campbell, Aaron Douglas, Helen Dryden, John Held Jr., Rockwell Kent, and Sydney Leff.
