William Wolff
A Woman Clothed in the Sun

1987

About the Item

Signed proof copy from edition of unknown size. Most of Wolff's prints were done in very small numbers, and each was often unique. Born in 1922 in San Francisco, William F. Wolff was primarily known for his bold woodcut prints on literary and mythological subjects. Wolff studied at the California School of Fine Arts, (now the San Francisco Art Institute), in the early 1940s. Returning to his studies after military service in World War II, Wolff received a MA in art in 1951 from the University of California at Berkeley. In the summer of 1950 Wolff studied at Mills College with visiting German artist Max Beckmann, whose powerful personality left an indelible stamp on many Bay Area painters including Wolff. A retrospective of his work was held at St. Mary’s College in Moraga in 2002. His work is in several private and public collections, including the Achenbach Collection at the Legion of Honor, The Whitney Museum of American Art, the New York Public Library, the Oakland Museum of California and the Library of Congress.
