Life Drawing Sunday 1: T.S. Sullivant, 1890 - early 1894

Life magazine, that is. The original one. "The one," as Dorothy Parker said, "that was intentionally funny." This week, the earliest available work for Life by T.S. Sullivant. These are somewhat atypical Sullivant drawings, not in the signature style that would emerge over the next few years, but the penwork is typically spectacular. [Revised 7/3/12]

An article about T.S. Sullivant by Andreas Deja can be found here. There are also two portfolios of Sullivant drawings side by side with Sullivant-inspired drawings by Deja.
