"Carqueville's large body of posters for Philadelphia based Lippincott's
magazine was completed before he left his native Chicago to study
in Paris. On his return, he set up a studio in Chicago, where he had
a long productive career as a lithographer, designer and painter…Writing
in London, Charles Hiatt praised Carqueville's 'skill in making vehement
colour contrast' Case in point: This sporty chap enjoying a pipe decked
out in his fashionable tennis whites. His golden beard and hair immediately
catch one's eye, while the textured-burgundy background and periwinkle
blossoms maintain an eclectic interest. An exemplary design, executed
with primary elan" (Rennert,
PAI-XXVIII, 194,196)
