*The Complete Charles Dana Gibson: A Widow and Her Friends (1899-1901) is the first of a three-volume series dedicated to the complete bibliography of perhaps America's greatest-ever cartoonist, the incomparable Charles Dana Gibson. This first book in The Complete Charles Dana Gibson will present the most beloved and long-form of Gibson's influential graphic-novel works, The Education of Mr. Pip and A Widow and Her Friends. The book features stunning reproduction, laboriously sourced and restored from the best possible sources, gorgeous printing that gives unparalleled insight into why Gibson was one of America's greatest artistic and cultural exports during the decades in which he worked. The book also includes a long biographical essay by series editor and production artist Sean Michael Robinson that contextualizes Gibson's work for a modern audience, illuminating his progressive politics, his wry humor, and his explosive mark-making that influenced generations of fine artists and illustrators.
