埃德温·奥斯汀·阿比
莎士比亚插画与壁画大师
埃德温·奥斯汀·艾比是一位美国壁画家、插画家和画家。他在如今被称为插图“黄金时代”的初期蓬勃发展，并以描绘莎士比亚题材和维多利亚时代题材的画作与插图，以及为爱德华七世加冕礼创作的绘画而闻名。他最著名的壁画系列《圣杯的追寻与成就》装饰着波士顿公共图书馆。 艾比于1852年出生于费城。他在宾夕法尼亚美术学院师从克里斯蒂安·舒塞勒学习艺术。艾比的职业生涯始于插画师，为《哈珀周刊》（1871–1874）和《斯克里布纳杂志》等杂志创作了大量插图和素描。他的插图很早就出现在《哈珀周刊》上：当时艾比还不满二十岁。他于1871年移居纽约市。他的插图深受法国和德国黑白艺术的影响。 他还为几本畅销书绘制插图，包括查尔斯·狄更斯的《圣诞故事》（1875年）、罗伯特·赫里克诗选（1882年）以及奥利弗·哥尔德史密斯的《屈身求爱》（1887年）。艾比还于1896年为哈珀兄弟出版社绘制了一套四卷本的《莎士比亚喜剧集》插图。
