| Edward Penfield's Posters Calendar, Wall, Pomegranate
Drawing on such influences as Toulouse-Lautrec and other graphic masters of the Belle epoque and the strongly defined outlines and flat color masses of ancient Egyptian art, Edward Penfield was a pioneer in the divergence of the American Arts and Crafts movement from its sometimes overwrought European strain. Graceful and deceptively simple-seeming, Penfield's posters for Harper's New Monthly Magazine defined the look of his time. This calendar presents twelve prime examples of his softly colored, delicately controlled work. This 2006 Wall calendar was published by Pomegranate.
