Artist
Best known for his illustrations of classic literature, N. C. Wyeth’s vibrant imagery and command of visual narrative brought the pages of Treasure Island, The Last of the Mohicans and Robinson Crusoe to vivid life for generations of young readers. One of the most successful illustrators of his time, Wyeth created over 3,000 paintings and provided illustrations for over 100 books during his prolific career. While Wyeth found success as a commercial artist, his imagination and passion for fine art shaped the next two generations of Wyeth family artists, including his son Andrew Wyeth and grandson Jamie Wyeth.
