the amazing art of burne hogarth,

This review is from: Tarzan of the apes (Hardcover)
if you have followed the career of burne hogarth one of the most awesome exponents of the art of figure drawing,you would find that this album"Tarzan of the apes" represents a landmark, this book was drawn many years after he stopped drawing tarzan for the newspapers. he had put a phenomenal amount of work in each frame of this book .Anyone who has read his dynamic series of books will realize that this book is a very good example of what sort of work you can produce if you follow the principles outlined by him . burne hogarth was a michaelangelo in the field of comic book art.Sadly this great artist and teacher is not amongst us any more.

Beautiful, fascinating!,

This review is from: Tarzan of the apes (Hardcover)
I got this book in the early seventies, shortly after it came out in 1972. I was already a fan of Burroughs' books and the Tarzan character and story, but when I first opened Hogarth's lush, gorgeous depiction of the tale, I was almost literally floored! Inside the slick pages, someone with a Master's talent had accurately captured every mental image of Burrough's world that I have ever envisioned while reading his books. To say Hogarth is talented is like saying Michelangelo is a pretty good draftsman. The colors are nearly blindingly brilliant, but it is the flow of the story that makes this piece of art stand out. On many pages, the images almost flow off the page. The jungle flora, the birds, the animals, and, of course, Tarzan himself, are breathtaking. I have reverently re-read this book many times in the 30 odd years I've had it, and my joy has never dimmed. If you can get a copy, do so.

Brune Hogarth was one of the best illustrators to ever draw Tarzan. This book is a MUST HAVE for Hogarth fans.
