MIGUEL COVARRUBIAS

21 November 1904 - 4 February 1957, Mexico City, Mexico

As an artist is known for caricature works, book and magazine illustrations, murals, dance and theatre. He started working as a caricaturist and illustrator at the age of 14. Later, in New York, he worked for the New Yorker and Vanity Fair magazines.

He also was an humanist. He made relevant contributions in anthropology, archeology, ethnology, art history and became an expert in indigenous Mexican art and culture.

As a painter he made full use of the transparent characteristics of oil paint as we easily can see in his painting Black woman with blue dress.
