Richard Earl Thompson was an American impressionist, much influenced by the French school, and a highly successful illustrator. He was a child prodigy at the Chicago Academy of Fine Art where he was a student of Frederick Grant. After that, he attended the Chicago Art Institute with Louis Ritman, who was a strong influence on his drawing, color, and composition skills.
To earn a living, he chose a career in commercial art, doing many back covers of the "Saturday Evening Post", especially (showing 500 of 2537 characters). |
