Charles Turzak
- ... that Charles Turzak's book of woodblock prints presenting the life of Abraham Lincoln was the first ever such life of a historic figure presented only in images? Source: "[Turzak] also claimed, accurately as it turns out, that his was the first ever such wordless biography on any historical figure." from Pohlad, Mark B. (2013). "Charles Turzak's Abraham Lincoln: Biography in Woodcuts (1933)" https://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/p/pod/dod-idx/charles-turzaks-abraham-lincoln-biography-in-woodcuts-1933.pdf?c=jala;idno=2629860.0034.203;format=pdf (or HTML https://quod.lib.umich.edu/j/jala/2629860.0034.203/--charles-turzaks-abraham-lincoln-biography-in-woodcuts-1933?rgn=main;view=fulltext)

- Image is free- clear and interesting. The article is free of copyright issues and has the correct inline citations. It is indeed interesting and I enjoyed learning about the artist and the art. I added a non-free image of the person, and I added free photos of the woodblock prints that are discussed in the article. No QPQ is needed. The article is new enough and long enough. the hook is interesting and cited. Good work Bruxton (talk) 16:57, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
