Boardman Robinson was a Canadian-born American illustrator, painter, and political cartoonist known for his bold, socially charged imagery in the early 20th century. A contributor to publications like The Masses, his work often critiqued war, inequality, and industrial power with striking graphic clarity. Later, he became an influential teacher at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center. Robinson’s work can be found in major collections including the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art, and the Art Institute of Chicago, reflecting his lasting impact on American illustration and modern art.
