Richard Avedon by David Levine
NY Review of Books 1978
David Levine, caricaturist, illustrator, painter, died on December 29th at 83. There are many obituaries of Levine, who in my opinion was the best caricaturist of his era. This link is to the NYTimes obit by Bruce Weber. The caricature of Richard Avedon is among the 2500 illustrations created for The NY Review of Books from 1963 – 2007. They are all included in a remarkable collection called the David Levine Gallery. Check it out.
