A haunting woodcut narrative from 1974, Storyteller Without Words: The Wood Engravings of Lynd Ward presents "Gods' Man I. The Brush"—a silent, deeply atmospheric tale told entirely through Lynd Ward’s masterful woodcuts. As a young man named Madman rises through knowledge and hardship, a mysterious piper follows him through generations, weaving through moments of triumph and tragedy. The story unfolds with quiet intensity, its power rooted in Ward’s stark imagery and the weight of a life shaped by unseen forces.
