THE MORGAN LIBRARY & MUSEUM PRESENTS THE FIRST SURVEY OF THE DRAWINGS OF WAYNE THIEBAUD
Wayne Thiebaud, Draftsman
May 18 through September 23, 2018
Best known for his rich, colorful paintings of cakes, ice cream cones, and candy counters, California artist Wayne Thiebaud (b. 1920) has been an avid and prolific draftsman since he began his career as an illustrator and cartoonist. Featuring subjects that range from deli counters and solitary figures to dramatic views of San Francisco’s plunging streets, Thiebaud’s drawings endow the most common objects and everyday scenes with a sense of poetry and nostalgia.
