Oscar Cesare (1885-1948)
Oscar Cesare New York Post Editorial Comics Panels Original Art Group of 3 (Post Publ., 1910s). New York's corrupt political structure inspired these three selections from master editorialist Cesare. One somber piece marks the death in 1913 of Judge-turned-Mayor William Jay Gaynor, a reformer who had broken ranks with the oppressive Tammany Hall power cadre. The others concern disgraced New York Governor William Sulzer and his circle of associates and rivals. Ink and white watercolor over graphite on toned Bristol board, with an image area of approximately 12" x 16". Very Good condition. HID09710052018 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
