Saul Tepper
(1899-1987) |
Saul
Tepper learned his trade at a variety of New York institutions,
including The Cooper Union, The Art Students League, and at the
Grand Central School of Art where he took classes from fellow
illustrator Harvey Dunn.
Working primarily in oil, Tepper produced well-researched,
emotionally-charged illustrations. He drew on a full range of
subject matter, from romance to adventure, working in both magazine
fiction and advertising art. Like many other lifelong illustrators,
Tepper also went on to teach the trade to younger artists at both
the Pratt Institute and The Cooper Union, mentoring such well-known
illustrators as Al Dorne and Harry Beckhoff. |
