Mad Men Illustrated by Dyna Moe

May 29, 2009 Art, TV

mm1

The Rathaus loves Mad Men and illustration. So what better than freelance illustrator Dyna Moe’s collection of vintage inspired images based on scenes from the award winning series. Began as a single commission for the cast and crew Christmas card from actor Rich Sommer’s, Moe enjoyed the project so much she decided to continue the work. “I’m inspired by and emulating illustrators Aurelius Battaglia, Alice & Martin Provensen, Art Seiden and J. P. Miller (among others) who did illustration and commercial art during the era the show is set,” Moe says of her work on Flickr. We commend Moe for paying homage to such a great set of illustrators and one of our favorite shows on television.
