Rockwell Kent was an American painter, printmaker, and illustrator whose dramatic landscapes and wood engravings captured remote environments across Greenland, Alaska, and Newfoundland. Working primarily in oil, lithography, and wood engraving throughout the twentieth century, Kent developed a distinctive visual language of simplified forms and bold contrasts that conveyed both the sublime and the austere. His illustrated editions of classical texts and his graphic works on paper established him as a major figure in American printmaking and social-minded illustration.
