Franklin Booth
Franklin Booth, (July 8, 1874 – August 28, 1948) was an influential American artist known for his highly detailed pen-and-ink illustrations.
==Biography==
Booth was born and raised on a farm in Carmel, Indiana. As a boy, he was determined to become an artist. He studied pictures in books and magazines, including ''Scribner's'' and ''Harper's''. His unusual technique was the result of a misunderstanding: Booth scrupulously copied magazine illustrations which he thought were pen-and-ink drawings. In fact, they were wood engravings. As a result, this led him to develop a style of drawing composed of thousands of lines, whose careful positioning next to one another produced variations in density and shade. The characteristics of his art were his scale extremes with large buildings and forests looming over tiny figures, decorative scrolls and borders, classic hand lettering and gnarled trees.〔Reed, Walt and Roger, ''The Illustrator in America 1880-1980'', page 89.
