Peter Arno was a prominent American cartoonist, best known for his work with The New Yorker magazine, where he contributed from its first year in 1925 until his death. His distinctive, bold style and sophisticated, often risqué, humor helped define the magazine's visual identity and comedic tone. Arno's cartoons frequently satirized the New York high society, businessmen, and flappers of his era, capturing the spirit of the Jazz Age. His work influenced generations of cartoonists and remains an iconic representation of mid-20th-century American satire.
