| Lynd Ward is known as the US Masereel. 'Wild Pilgrimage' is one of his novels without words. Ward travelled to Europe in 1926 and "spent much of that time attending the Leipzig Academy for Graphic Arts where he was taught the art of wood engraving by Hans Alexander Mueller. He was also exposed to the work and ideas of the Belgian Frans Masereel and the German Otto Nuckel. Both of these artists were exploring the limits of telling stories with pictures and no words. That year and those artists had an indelible impact on Ward and his career." (from JVJ Publishing, Illustrators http://www.bpib.co/lyndward.htm) | |
