Influence and Legacy

In his book Great Cartoonists and Their Art, political cartoonist Art Wood wrote:

His style was distinctive and influenced such diverse artisans as Walt Disney, Russell Patterson, Don Flowers and Walt Scott in this country. His drawings also influenced Antonio Arias Bernal, one of Mexico’s leading caricaturists. He had a gift for color, and his vivid poster-like paintings decorated children's rooms around the world.... While Grant’s work was imitated, it was never emulated.

    Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)

    What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.
