Dean Cornwell magazine illustrations

Dean Cornwell magazine illustrations
Francis Vallejo points us to a wonderful Flickr set containing scans of magazine illustrations by the great American illustrator Dean Cornwell.

Cornwell studied with Harvey Dunn, a student of the amazing Howard Pyle, and also with Frank Brangwyn, carrying forward the intensity, power and superb draftsmanship that were the hallmarks of those great illustrators’ work.
