Louis Dalrymple was an American cartoonist and printmaker whose sharp caricatures defined late-19th-century political satire in Puck, Judge, and the New York Daily Graphic. Born in Cambridge, Illinois, he became chief cartoonist of the Daily Graphic in 1885, establishing himself as a leading figure in American editorial illustration during the Gilded Age. His work combined formal training from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the Art Students League with a gift for capturing physiognomy and political nuance through lithography and engraving.
