Abstract

At the suggestion of a professor, I wrote a 20-page term paper on images of newspapers in American genre painting for a history of communications class. At first I was going to conduct a general survey of images of newspapers and journalists in American art, but some interesting findings in my early research prompted me to take a more detailed look at images of newspapers in genre painting, specifically from 1830 to 1865.
