Charles Livingston Bull

 

Charles Livingston Bull (1874–1932) was an American illustrator. Bull taxi studied dermy in Rochester, New York and is known for his illustration of wildlife.

Bull's first job at the age of 16 was preparing animals for mounting at the Ward's Museum in Rochester, New York. He later worked as a taxidermist in Washington, D.C specializing in anatomy of birds and animals.

During World War I, he designed recruiting posters. A notable example is Join the Army Air Service. Be an American eagle! which featured an eagle fighting a black bird.

Bull lived for many years near the Bronx Zoo in New York to allow close access to be able to sketch living animals. He made many trips to Central and South America studying wildlife in their natural surroundings. Stories and illustrations for this trip were published in his book, Under the Roof of the Jungle. He made many drawings to help garner public interest in eagles.

Bull was a resident of Oradell, New Jersey and donated several of his works to the Oradell Public Library.

Martin Claus, 1880-1956 (at least that's what we think, but it might be not totally correct), german illustrator. We don't know much about his life, we can try to stitch together a timeline of his career from the dates of some of his works

 The earliest example of his illustration is from a 1919 edition of the satirical magazine Meggendorfer Bl ätter, he would have been 31 years old, so it's sure that there are earlier works, but there's no evidence of them. Probably he was employed by the magazine as a staff artist. He had a different range of styles and techniques used all with technical and creative success .
