From the age of 16 when the Russian Revolution scuttled his university education, until 25 when he had his first New Yorker cover published, Constantin Alajalov whirled through an array of jobs in Russia, Persia, Turkey and New York City, ranging from sign painter to portrait painter to court painter, engaging everything from poetry illustrations to murals.
Alajalov was the only artist to have painted covers for both The New Yorker and The Saturday Evening Post, someh (showing 500 of 962 characters). |
