Luigi Rist was born in 1888 in New Jersey, where he attended the Newark Technical School. To earn extra income in his early twenties he etched art nouveau designs on silver fountain pen cases, and in the early 1920s he commuted to the Grand Central School of Art in New York. It was at this school that he made his first block print. In the early 1930s Rist first saw Japanese woodblocks at an exhibition in New York. Rist was fascinated and began teaching himself the process, developing the style which he would later become known for. Rist died in 1959 in Pennsylvania, where he was still working on the woodcuts that had fascinated him for thirty years.
