This is an article about courtroom artists, link above^.
A fact about court artists I did not know, that court artists covered the Salem Witch trials.
A painting from the trials below is in the collection of the Smithsonian.
.
But a lot of stuff is just not true, the fact that we arrive several minutes before a proceeding
more like several hours before, why cameras are barred and we are used, how we are paid, etc.
The upcoming court art book, www.illustratedcourtroom.com
should clear up some of this mis-information.
