The Art of Thomas Mackenzie

Thomas Mackenzie (1887-1944) was an artist associated with the Golden Age of Illustrations. He produced illustrations for books

and watercolours during the early 20th Century.

The Thomas Mackenzie Collection at Spirit of the Ages includes art images from some of Mackenzie's seminal work. As a valuable

reference resource, options are also provided for purchasing a range of gifts, including reproduction prints, posters and greeting cards.

His earliest commissioned works were for "Ali Baba and Aladdin" and illustrations for Chaundler's "Arthur and His Knights". Other

illustrated books followed, including "Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp", "Hassan" and "The Crock of Gold".

Mackenzie's illustrations are reminiscent of the work of his Art Nouveau peers, including Aubrey Beardsley, Harry  Clarke and

Kay Nielsen. His images for "Arthur and His Knights", in particular, are stylistically similar to those of Nielsen in "East of the Sun and

West of the Moon", but have a softness about them that remind one of the  watercolours that he also produced.
