Spanning 1893 to 1966, the Boris Artzybasheff Papers
comprises biographical material, correspondence, artwork, writings, and memorabilia of the Russian-American

Time magazine he produced between 1941 and 1965. Illuminating Artzybasheff's
unique and versatile artistic style as well as his life as an immigrant in the United States, the collection
documents the career of the illustrator, painter, designer, and author.
