"Until the First World War two German comic magazines. Simplizmus and Jugend, published satirical drawings, which Americans avidly collected. Most of the artists whose works appeared in these magazines are forgotten. But not Heinrich Kley. Heinrich Kley will never be forgotten so long as men love hearty laughter and great draughtsmanship. The vast humor of Rabelais and the mighty forms of Rubens live again as his audacious pen obeys his rioutous fancy. He is one of the supreme masters of pictorial satire." -Introduction.
