Albert Dorne Drawings
25 days ago | By Art Contrarian
I wrote about the successful, prolific illustrator Albert Dorne (1906-1965) here , featuring some of the many crowd scenes he depicted. I got to thinking about Dorne again because a recent issue of Illustration Magazine was devoted to him.
Although I'm not usually enthusuastic about his illustrations, I greatly respect his ability to draw. This ability is especially impressive because Dorne was self-taught, having to discover many aspects of art on his own. David Apatoff posted about Dorne's sketchbooks here. The present post also features some of his drawings.
