One of the finest American wood engravers of the twentieth century and an outstanding artist of any era Lynd Ward (1905-85) created a series of fantastic visual novels. The powerful imagery and psychological intensity of his wordless works have elicited comparisons to the writings of Hawthorne Melville and Poe. Ward's tutelage included studying under the direction of German woodcut and engraving master Hans Alexander Mueller. Ward has received many awards including The Library of Congress Award and the New York Times Best Illustrated Award among others.
