"As much as I love Leyendecker's art and talent" according to Januari M Works. As much as I love Leyendecker's art and talent, the writers of this book come to table with a load of baggage and prejudices. If you just want to look at the images, fine, but if you want content, try a more well rounded author.. Beautiful Book with Beautiful Imagery Beautiful collection of one of America's greatest early 20th-century illustrators. The reproductions, the paper, and the binding are high quality. Great reference work with stunning images of the beauty of the American male between 1910-1930.. Nick PItarra said Excellent.. If you're an artist this is my highest rec in regards to studying drapery . Leyendecker is a master of drawing the negative space/shape a fold makes , not the actual foldbest believable hand drawn/painted/stylized drapery you'll ever see.
