This image is from an old old art magazine, and is amazing for its cross-pollination of 'fine' art with 'illustrative' art. Benda's work is some of my utter favorite in the history of illustration.
Hi Thom, I can see why you say he combined fine art and illustrative art beautifully. From everything I've seen of his work, the design elements are always there, and the execution is exquisite, from faces to background to fabrics and scenery.
