Dean Cornwell collection (download)!!!

[Fvallejo]

Hey folks!

Hope everyones holidays are going well.
So in the spirit of the season I thought I would share my collection of Dean Cornwell illustrations.

If you head over to my blog ( www.francisvallejo.blogspot.com or click below) , you can click a link to download 118 Cornwell illustrations. Earlier this year I apprehended a flat file full of Cornwell original magazine clippings, which I then
scanned in.

Here are some of the files:











Here's the link to download:

[Elwell]

You, uhm, wouldn't happen to have these... bigger, would you?

[Zirngibism]

Wow, I'll have to look into this guy, thanks for sharing!

And, not to look a gift horse in the mouth or anything, but I wouldn't mind losing the extra hard drive space to get some bigger images.

:-D

[jrr]

[bhanu]

Thank you soooooo much.

You, uhm, wouldn't happen to have these... bigger, would you?

seconded..ahem ahem


Elwell- Just checked francis's blog and it does say here, that he might be able to provide hi res scans later on.


Thanks again.

[TASmith]

it's nice downloading a zip, and not having to click each image for once. Maybe I should do that some day when I've finished my collecting...

[Bill]

Very Very cool of you. Thanks.

[Taj]

You, uhm, wouldn't happen to have these... bigger, would you?

When I get back to my studio I'll elaborate on this post. I have a .zip of all the hi-res scans that I'll put up, in case anyone wants to print them out

In the meantime, heres my tiny collection i just started, a couple decent sized images.

Thanks a lot Francis. This will save me a fortune and time going out and finding and scanning all these.

[Portus]

Those are well amazing, thanks!

[tsujni]

me thanks you!

[Fvallejo]

Hey guys, you're too kind. Glad that you are enjoying the download!!!

Cornwell is one of my favorites. Now if only someone could put up a collection of Mead Schaeffer...???? **hint hint**

But I do have all of these in their 300 dpi glory. I barely managed to drop the smaller set into onto my server before I hopped on a plane. Like a few folks mentioned, when I get back I'll put up a link to download the hi-res imagery. It's going to be a humongously epic file, over 1 gig, but I should be able to do it..haha.

cheers,

[Matt Dixon]

Fantastic! Thankyou, Francis!

[waranghira]

If you got the 300dpi's, then maybe its time to torrent them? XD

[Peter Coene]

OMFG!!! I was surfing through old threads and found this. I've been looking for Dean Cornwell stuff for forever! Holy cow thank you!

[Whitevillage]

Here's some Schaeffers...(first 4 pix) followed by some Saul Teppers (next 6) and Dan Contents (2) and a Loomis... Schaeffer, Tepper and Content were acolytes of Cornwell's and are often indistinguishable from him during the 1930s. Sundblom and Pruett Carter and Charles S. Chapman also fit in to that general aesthetic, though slightly less influeced by Cornwell's chunkiness.

Btw, in the 1940s Schaeffer's style changed away from Cornwell's influence with the waning of Depression era romanticism and the rise in reputation of social realist guys like Steve Dohanos, Andrew Wyeth, and Grant Wood (if you can call Wyeth social realist).

Here's more cornwell, including an old news item about his mural work which I found online somewhere...
