Feodor Stepanovich Rojankovsky (1891-1970) was an artist who was born in Russia, studied in France, and moved to the USA in 1941. He produced pictures for over a hundred books (some of which he wrote) and won several awards for his work in illustrating children's books. He is most noted for his bold combinations of strong colors. Conversely, he also sold erotic art with a French flavor, mostly under the name of "Rojan."
I love his method of rendering the texture of leaves, fur and hair. Makes me curious about his erotica!
ReplyDeleteSimple enough; go to Google Image and type in "rojan." It's...a little shocking.
