Review Quotes
Booklist
“Moser’s small, firmly detailed, strongly textured, and subtly expressive black-and-white portraits demonstrate all that art can grasp and encompass.”
University California Library Blog
“Moser is arguably the preeminent bookman in the world today, working as an artist, printmaker, and designer.”
Art Fuse
“Moser holds a place among the top tier of the top tier of illustrators. He is one of the foremost living practitioners of wood engraving, an unforgiving medium in which he has developed a style characterized by studied realism and fine attention to detail.”
San Fransisco Chronicle
“Moser’s engravings are direct and sometimes harrowing.”
Catholic Library World
“Moser, one of the most widely acknowledged printmaking geniuses in the world.”
