Will Carqueville lived in Chicago for most of his life and studied in Paris for a brief time. He founded his own lithographic press there and designed posters for Lippencott's as well as other American literary magazines. His style was somewhat influenced by another American poster artist, Edward Penfield. In the United States, as in Europe at this time, literary magazines flourished and several-Harper's, Lippencott's, Scribner's, and The Atlantic Monthly in particular-helped to popularize the current style of poster design, associating it with the cultural tastes of the day. Carqueville's work is classically American: clean, stylish, simple, and direct.
