Robert Savage (1868-1943) is widely considered the finest bank note picture engraver of the twentieth century. He worked at American Bank Note Company for 52 years, from 1891 to his death in 1943.He was head of the picture engraving department at ABN in the early twentieth century but gave up the title in 1923 to Edwin Gunn, his longtime colleague (and almost his equal) though he continued toengrave for American to the end of his life. He never retired.

Some of his best portraits include Sun Yat-sen, appearing on countless Chinese bank notes; the gypsy girl on the Mexican 5 peso note of 1925 into the 1930s; Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourgon notes from the 1930s-1940s; Slavia on the Czech 100 korun note; and the vignette "France" from artwork by A. E. Foringer. There are countless other fine engravings. For a lengthy list ofsome of his work, see Gene Hessler's The Engraver's Line and the accompanying supplement.
