Before Andrew and Jamie, there was N. C. Wyeth. The star student of Howard Pyle's Brandywine School, Newell Convers Wyeth (1882–1945) created more than 3,000 illustrations in the course of his career. This original full-color collection focuses on his most popular illustrations, featuring early works that date from 1910-30. More than 100 iconic images include scenes from The Last of the Mohicans, The Mysterious Stranger, Robin Hood, Robinson Crusoe, Rip Van Winkle, The Boy's King Arthur, and other books. Wyeth's fame and greatest commercial success derived from his work for Scribners' Illustrated Classics. Starting with the 1911 edition of Treasure Island, the artist provided images for more than 25 volumes in the series. Many of those illustrations appear here, in a treasury of stirring, dramatic visions that captured the imaginations of the storybook readers of a century ago and continue to speak to modern audiences.

Father of Andrew Wyeth, pupil of Howard Pyle, and one of the preeminent illustrators of the twentieth century, Newell Convers Wyeth (1882-1945) learned early to use dramatic effects to great advantage in his works. At the start of his career, these robust, romantic illustrations earned their creator many commissions from such popular publications of the period as Harper's Monthly, Ladies' Home Journal, McClure's, and The Saturday Evening Post. This gallery of art cards presents 24 of Wyeth's most dynamic illustrations for magazines and literary classics as well as selections from his personal paintings, landscapes, and other works from the exclusive collection of the Brandywine River Museum of Art, located in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. Highlights include illustrations from Kidnapped, Treasure Island, and The Last of the Mohicans as well as portraits of George Washington and William Penn and rural scenes from the Chadds Ford area. An Introduction and Notes by a Brandywine River Museum curator complement the images. AUTHOR: American artist and illustrator Newell Convers Wyeth (1882-1945) was a student of Howard Pyle. He illustrated more than 100 books, several of them for the Scribner Classics series. Many of his paintings - and those of his son, Andrew Wyeth, and his grandson, Jamie Wyeth - are exhibited at the Brandywine River Museum of Art, located in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and situated near the N. C. Wyeth House and Studio.
