1932W2805<p>Redlands California: Unpublished 1932. Original watercolor and color pencil drawing on artist board. SIGNED. Near Fine. 9 inches by 18 Inches.</p><p>Dean Cornwell 1892-1960 studied under Howard Pyle's student Harvey Dunn and the influence of the Brandywine School in much of Cornwell's work. Nicknamed "The Dean of Illustrators" by his peers Cornwell completed more than 1000 paintings as illustrations for stories and advertisements in books and magazines such as <em>Cosmopolitan Life Redbook</em> and many others.</p><p>Although he was very successful as an illustrator Cornwell decided to become a muralist; so in the late 1920s he spent 3 years in England studying mural painting with Frank Brangwyn. His first commission was to create his now famous murals for the Los Angeles Public Library. In 1932 he completed murals for the Lincoln Memorial Shrine in Redlands California. Although the study offered here was not selected for inclusion it may well have been the inspiration for the 2 allegorical murals he completed for the project because it includes both of the elements that were the focus of each of the selected murals: "He Freed the Slaves" and "He Preserved the Union." Included with the watercolor are 2 vintage postcards picturing the murals. Also the scene in this study is placed atop a plinth that is quite similar to those in the murals. The study also includes the muralist technique of surrounding figures with strong outlines which Cornwell adopted both in his own murals and in his later illustration work.</p><p>Paintings by Cornwell have been exhibited in the Whitney Museum of American Art The Art Institute of Chicago the National Academy of Design and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. In 1959 he was inducted into the Society of Illustrators' Hall of Fame.</p> Unpublished
