Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A dream book for Szyk Fans and wannabes
Review: Arthur Szyk was a popular illustrator of the mid-twentieth century who had experienced a great resurgence in popularity in recent years. With good reason too -- his style is unique, striking, bold, brilliant (enough superlatives?). Furthermore, Szyk was intensely political and he lent his talent to fight the main issues of his day -- anti-fascism, freedom and tolerance. His art can still stir the conscience. Irvin Ungar is a leading authority in Szyk and well qualified to introduce you to his work. Fans will be delighted and wannabes will learn what they have been missing.
