Indeed, how pretty and nicely decorated and niminy-piminy was the result compared to the robust splendours of Rowlandson, Cruikshank, Caldecott and Leech. It is worth vi…. Cruikshank, you see, has used a number of stage clichés. They would rather make it all up. § Edward Ardizzone RA (1900-1979)set of 4 pen and ink drawings,Illustrations to Bleak House, 1955 Bid Live on Lot 1196 in the Fine Art, Antiques and Collectables Auction from Gorringes. He illustrated few books, and those were early efforts which he did not do very well.George CruikshankNow think of any of Keene's drawings and compare it with any of Cruikshank's - for instance Cruikshank's famous etching of Fagin in the condemned cell – the picture which moved G. K. Chesterton to write: 'It is not drawn with the free lines of a free man; it has the half-witted secrecies of a hunted thief. But if there had been at that time a few born illustrators the results would have been better and would by now be less dated to look at. Inventiveness is a gift which all potential illustrators must have to some degree.

It may take a beginner a long time to find it out on his own, however.

Ardizzone’s lively line-and-wash drawings were based on constant observation of the world, disciplined by classical figure composition. 259-263.

In fact, as a rule, they don't like drawing from life at all. Because the illustrator can rarely go to life and because he has to work fast, it follows that the bigger and better the dictionary of forms which he carries in his head, the better and more efficient an illustrator he will be. Painting is the fountainhead of all the visual arts, and some knowledge of it is necessary for all who practise these arts.The illustrator, however, besides a sensitivity of eye, and a feeling for colour and design, has to have his own special skills, which are: E.A. The field in which he functions best is not the de luxe limited edition, in which the text, which nobody reads, is merely a peg for a number of fine plates. In any case the whole trend and mood of art today may well make it impossible to force the student to copy.

One denied that he ever drew from life and the other was never seen to do so. He is also very often a bad one. I must admit I found the book that I saw most useful.

He creates a visual world, which looks real and which can be believed in. The Jew himself, with his long hooked nose and staring eyeballs, is a popular conception of what a frightened old Jew should look like.

It is these two things which give the artist his dictionary of forms. A book like this would be invaluable to many illustrators today, whose trees are poor and impoverished affairs. Quarterly (vol.I, no.3, July 1957 pp.26-30).
