Forgotten Pictures explores a lost world of popular art and the mostly forgotten people who created defining images of modern life in the days before television. Beloved by the public and scorned by the art world, magazine illustrators enjoyed a heyday from the turn of the 20th century into the 1950's when the market collapsed. Today, cultural historians at Washington University in St. Louis are excavating their careers, working with families to recover and preserve their legacies.
