Description

An indispensable guide to the international history of illustrated images, from 1750 to the present day.

Illustration: A Concise History is a dynamic visual journey through the landscape of illustration that maps the evolution of the discipline from the industrial revolution to the post-digital age and showcases over 180 of its most iconic practitioners, including Laura Knight, Antonio Lopez, Käthe Kollwitz and Hayao Miyazaki. By contextualizing the subject within a framework of key political events, cultural innovations and technological advances, Andrew Hall redefines how we might think about illustration and the place that it has in our ever-evolving global network.

The second half of this introductory volume follows on from the ten chapters charting the chronology of illustration to provide a more in-depth look at its specific commercial genres across eleven feature sections, each including mini-histories, practical career advice and biographies of inspirational practitioners who operated within the field.

Andrew Hall is a senior lecturer of illustration for Central Saint Martins' Graphic Communication Design Program. He has written several books on illustration and produced articles on a wide range of related topics such as coded robotic drawing, illustration practices in Tokyo and New York and the digitalization of illustrative production methods.
