Joseph Pennell was born in 1857 and died in 1926. He began his work
as an illustrator by selling drawings of south Philadelphia to
Scribner's Monthly in 1881. In addition to his extensive sketches
of American cities, he went to the Panama Canal and sketched a
number of construction sites. He taught etching at the Arts
Students' league in New York, wrote several books, served as an art
critic on the Brooklyn Eagle, and helped run the New Society of
Sculptors, Painters and Engravers. Pennell is considered to have
done more than any other one artist of his time to improve the
quality of illustration both in the United States and abroad and to
raise its status as an art. He produced more than 900 etched and
mezzotint plates, some 621 lithographs, and innumerable drawings
and water colors.
