I often look at his drawings when they come my way and marvel how he could put so much humour and intelligence into them. He had a gift and was able to exercise it to the full.
Without his very clever, very funny drawings and paintings we would not know so much about that period of American development. He tells it better than any history book could do.

Thanks for your essay on him. It’s always good to remember some of our finest artists and how they have affected our lives.
Just a little note. You might want to edit his birth date – it looks like you transposed the numbers. I think he must have been born in 1894 not 1984.
