IBIS Journal 1. Aspects of Illustration. 1999 af Willy Pogany
contains the first in-depth studies of two important illustrators working in the early part of the 20th century, Willy Pogány and Alice B. Woodward, together with a comprehensive analysis of the illustrations to Christina Rossetti's poem "Goblin Market". The journal has 144 pages finely printed on ivory paper and has a sewn binding. It has four full-colour plates and is handsomely presented in full colour laminated covers
I have a beautifully illustrated Bhagavad Gita by Pogany, so I was delighted to find an instructional book. I find Pogany's style similar in spirit to Burne Hogarth and to Bridgman: a dramatic, comic-book kind of style, the sort I'd like to learn.
