Arthur Szyk (pronounced “Shick”) was born in Łód´z, Poland,
in 1894 and died in New Canaan, Connecticut, in 1951. He was
considered the greatest miniaturist and painter-illuminator of his
era, and the leading political artist in America during World War
II. He was internationally recognized and celebrated, and his works
of art continue to be exhibited worldwide. This catalogue of
institutional holdings of Arthur Szyk’s art was created to
provide the best jumping off point for those interested in
surveying his originals for the purpose of research, scholarship,
and curatorial possibilities. Arthur Szyk Preserved illustrates
where Szyk’s work can be found today. Ultimately, this catalogue
recognizes and celebrates the public institutions that serve as
vital caretakers of Arthur Szyk’s art and legacy. It is hoped
that this publication will encourage them to more fully promote
public awareness of Szyk’s art and the breadth and beauty of his
works in multiple and creative ways.
