About the Item
Dorothy Morton was born in New Zealand. The date is usually listed as 1905, but it also appears at 1890. She died there in 1983.
It's hard to look at an mid-twentieth century intaglio print, dated 1949, and not to think that she encountered Stanley William Hayter along the way. Was she in NYC.? Could she have gone to his New York Atelier 17 workshop? There is a short exhibition history on line at the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki. She showed every year at the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts from 1942 to 1958. Also in 1954, 55, and 61, she exhibited at the Canterbury Society of Arts.
This startling image is signed, titled, and dated 1949 in pencil. It feels so 'modern.'

This fine lithograph is by Beniamino Bufano (1889-1970), a well-known artist in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The frame is in good condition with some light scratches.
Beniamino Benvenuto Bufano was born in San-Fele, Italy on Oct. 14, 1889. At age three Bufano's family brought him to NYC where he spent his childhood and was educated by private tutors. He studied at the ASL in NYC from 1913-15, the pupil of James L. Fraser, Herbert Adams, and Paul Manship. He came to San Francisco in 1915 to work on a sculpture for the PPIE. For awhile he worked in the studio of coppersmith Dirk van Erp. He then traveled extensively for four years in France, Italy, India, and China. After returning to San Francisco in 1921, he remained there the rest of his life except for visits to the Orient and Europe. Always a radical, he lost his teaching position at San Francisco Institute of Art in 1923 because he was too modern for the conservative faculty. He later taught at UC Berkeley and the CCAC (1964-65). Henry Miller wrote of him, "He will outlive our civilization and probably be better known, better understood, both as a man and artist, five thousand years hence." His work, simple in style and monumental in scale, includes smoothly rounded animals in granite and icons sheathed in stainless steel. Only five feet tall, Bufano was a controversial, free spirit until his death in San Francisco on Aug. 16, 1970. Member: SFAA; NSS; American Artists Congress.
