Moser engraves in Resingrave, a white epoxy resin.
In that Biblical effort, Moser fulfilled a life-long dream to realize his vision of the stories of his youth, becoming the first artist since Gustave Dore to illustrate an edition of the Bible single-handedly. Moser’s magnum opus, The Pennyroyal Caxton Bible, completed in 1999 after four years of intensive labor, served as the centerpiece of the only one-man exhibit ever to be mounted at the Library of National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, for a living artist. His children’s books of charming watercolors often find their way onto top ten lists. Moser’s edition of Lewis Carroll‘s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland won the 1983 National Book Award for design and illustration. Moser may be the most honored American illustrator alive today. In Barry Moser: Bookwright(at the Brandywine River Museum until May 22), the good book lives on in the age of the Kindle and the Nook.

Although never giving up the Good Book entirely, Moser devoted his life to creating good books-works of art full of his illustrations designed, printed, and bound with the highest craftsmanship. Separating himself from what he saw as that dark genesis, Moser turned to art, eventually becoming an artist, an engraver, and a full-blown book designer. Growing up a Bible-thumping, Southern-bred, segregation-approving Fundamentalist, Barry Moser became a licensed Methodist minister at the tender age of 19.
