Joseph Pennell

4th of July, 1857   -   April 23, 1929
American Art   •   Wikipedia: Joseph Pennell

The illustrator and graphic artist Joseph Penell was born in 1857 in the United States of America, and grew up in a Quaker family in Philadelphia. When he was ten years old, the family moved to Germantown, where he attended Friends Select School, "for six terrible years, the worst of my life," Joseph Penell later reported. A loner with few friends, Pennell spent much of his time painting and drawing, a quirk that was not welcomed at his school. After graduating from high school, Pennell first worked for the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company. When he applied to the new Academy of the Fine Arts in Pennsylvania, he was rejected, and instead studied at night at the School of Industrial Arts. When he was expelled from school for his rebellious nature, his professor Charles M. Burns, who had quickly recognized Pennell's talent, helped him gain admission to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Pennell's talents lay more in printmaking, but because of his abrasive personality, trouble arose constantly as he progressed through the Academy. Young Pennell had a special talent for not getting along with people, yet was an immediate success in the highly competitive field of illustration. He worked hard, had remarkable skills and a special talent for drawing, and created an enormous number of highly regarded works. He angered many, but also knew the great talents of his time.

Following his studies, he worked in New Orleans as a book illustrator. Arguably the best known author and illustrator of his time, Pennell often worked abroad. There he illustrated some of William Dean Howells' writings, and his prints of landscapes, interiors, and people gained a highly praised international reputation. He often used drawings as studies for his prints. He also produced panoramic images of major construction and engineering projects such as the Panama Canal and the locks at Niagara Falls. The American artist spent most of his creative years in Europe, producing etchings, pen and ink drawings, and lithographs of cathedrals, street scenes, and palaces for prestigious magazines and well-known publications. In the 1880s, Penell and his wife, who often worked with him, settled in England and became close friends with the American avant-garde painter James McNeill Whistler. Whistler was a highly skilled etcher who made prints of European roads and ports, and his work influenced Pennell's style.

During World War I, Pennell created a series of uplifting lithographs documenting the war effort in, Britain and the United States. In other projects, he depicted the Grand Canyon and the construction of the Panama Canal. An influential lecturer and critic, Pennell had written or illustrated countless magazines and books by the end of his career.
