About
Why this artist matters now
Eugene Zimmerman was an American printmaker active from the late 19th century through the early 20th century. Working primarily in etching and engraving, he developed a meticulous approach to narrative illustration and portrait work that gained wide circulation through periodicals and book publications of his era. His technical command of line and tonal range exemplified the reproductive printmaking standards of the Gilded Age and Progressive era.
