Wallace Morgan est un des mes illustrateurs chouchou et c’est d’autant plus facile que le peu d’illustrations disponibles le rend encore très désirable. Pas le moindre bouquin consacré voire même un article dans Illustration Magazine.
Sur le Web, on trouve des trucs mal scannés ou en petite taille et quelques originaux partagés par des propriétaires de bon goût. Alors, régulièrement, je pars à la chasse avec mon fidèle épagneul et, comme toujours, je finis par dégotter quelques perles.

C’est si beau…
Extrêmement émouvant aussi.
J’ai songé également aux dessins de Daumier,son regard intime sur l’humanité des plus pauvres,une attention à chacun.
La vie s’y exprime de partout,depuis le trait.
Oh, le retour de mon plus fidèle lecteur – toutes mes salutations. C’est difficile à comparer. Sur ces images, on voit en effet des gens pauvres mais j’ai découvert avec ce billet cet aspect de son travail — on trouve plutôt des images de la middle class/bourgeoisie. Je trouve son approche des gens de couleur très digne.
Merci pour cette récolte de perles. Ce qu’il arrive à faire en quelques traits de crayon est étourdissant.
Oui, il est d’une école sobre qui me plaît beaucoup. Il n’y a pas d’esbrouffe.
