Late 1880’s (Platinum-Age) Illustration
by C.J. Taylor (August 11, 1855 - January 18, 1929)
A very nice piece featuring a typical “Taylor Girls” young woman with a younger female child. Although undated, this piece was discovered in a batch of original Puck cartoons from the late 1880’s. Original cartoon art from this era, not to mention the work of Charles Jay "C.J." Taylor, is very rare and virtually non-existent. A nice example of the lush pen and ink work that earned Mr. Taylor international acclaim.
