亞瑟·盧姆利
內戰插圖先驅與社會諷刺畫家
亞瑟·拉姆利出生於愛爾蘭都柏林,約於1840年來到美國,居住在布魯克林。1850年代,他在國家設計學院學習藝術,並透過為書籍以及新創立的插圖報紙《紐約插圖報》、《哈珀週刊》和《弗蘭克·萊斯利插圖報》繪製插圖來維持生計。 1861年4月,法蘭克·萊斯利派遣盧姆利前往華盛頓特區,擔任「特約藝術家」,隨同歐文·麥克道爾將軍的軍隊南下維吉尼亞州,並在布爾朗溪與邦聯軍隊交戰。盧姆利繪製了聯邦軍隊在初期成功進攻時的大型全景畫,並對紐約市消防佐阿夫團的刺刀衝鋒進行了近距離細緻描繪。 當邦聯援軍發起反擊並擊潰聯邦軍的進攻時,倫利生動地捕捉到了聯軍向華盛頓撤退時引發的恐慌。1862年,他開始為《紐約畫報》工作。總體而言,《萊斯利週刊》和《紐約畫報》共發表了倫利的298幅戰時畫作。他還為《每日畫報》貢獻了社會諷刺題材的畫作,該報於19世紀70年代初創立,是美國第一份插圖日報。
