Satire

Satire has always needed a visual arm. From 19th-century political cartoons to the sharp magazine covers of the mid-20th century, illustrators found that an image could land a joke faster than any editorial column. The best work in this tradition walked a careful line, pointed enough to sting but polished enough to sell. The pieces shown here are period originals from that tradition.
