Peggy Bacon print maker, blog for college

In my art history class we are studying the feminist movement , so for this printmaking blog i chose a female print maker, who i believe to be a very good artist. Her name is Peggy Bacon. Bacon was an , illastrator, painter, and  print maker. in the late 1920's and 1930's she was noted for producing characaters of well known and prominante personalities of the time. Here is a portrait and some images she produced during her career
as an artist.

T"he aim of a caricature is to heighten and intensify to the point of absurdity all the subject's most striking attributes; a caricature should not necessarily stop at ridiculing the features but should include in its extravagant appraisal whatever of the figure may be needed to explain the personality, the whole drawing imparting a spicy and clairvoyant comment upon the subject's peculiarities."
