                      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Covarrubias was a Mexican painter and illustrator known for his popular caricatures. Covarrubias moved to New York City at the age of nineteen with a grant from the Mexican government. Covarrubias spoke little English but had incredible talent. In New York Covarrubias was introduced to the circle of literary and cultural elite. Before long, Covarrubias was an illustrator for several magazines including Vanity Fair and The New Yorker.</p>

Handy. Covarrubias made countless caricatures of the jazz scene printed in Vanity Fair. Covarrubias best captured the energy of the Harlem Renaissance in his book, Negro Drawings. Covarrubias did not consider his work to be caricatures, but serious studies of his contemporaries.</p>
