0

Edward Penfield (1866–1925) left an indelible mark on American art and design, shaping the visual culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Known for his bold, simplified style and mastery of flat colors, he captured the spirit of the “Golden Age of American Illustration.” Penfield’s stunning contributions to magazines like Harper’s Weekly and The Century Magazine earned him widespread recognition and influence. His work not only defined the artistic trends of his time but also bridged the worlds of commercial advertising and graphic design. A member of the “Society of Illustrators,” Penfield’s legacy is celebrated through his timeless Harper’s Magazine covers from the 1890s, which continue to inspire designers today.
