Frank Benson Landscape Prints
American, b. 1978
Born in Salem, Massachusetts, American Impressionist Frank Benson studied at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston under Otto Grundmann and at the Academie Julian with Gustave Boulanger and Jules Lefebvre. Benson was a founding member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, Guild of Boston Artists and the ‘Ten American Painters,’ a prestigious group of early impressionists. In 1900, Benson purchased a farm and studio on North Haven Island off the coast of Maine. It was there that his style became increasingly impressionistic. Benson is credited with being known as one of the outstanding 20th-century wildlife printmakers.
Benson was a member of the Boston Art Club, National Academy of Design, Society of American Artists and Guild of Boston Artists. He exhibited at the World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Exposition Universelle in Paris, Lousiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis and the Panama Pacific Exhibition in San Francisco, as well as at the Art Institute of Chicago, Corcoran Gallery, Carnegie Institute, International and Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Benson’s works are held in numerous public and private collections, including the National Gallery of Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Museum of Fine Arts, Worcester Art Museum and Metropolitan Museum of Art.(Biography provided by Wiscasset Bay Gallery)

FRANK W. BENSON (1862-1951)
Frank Weston Benson, well known for his American impressionist paintings, also produced an incredible body of prints - etchings, drypoints, and a few lithographs. Born and raised on the North Shore of Massachusetts, Benson, a natural outdoorsman, grew up sailing, fishing, and hunting. From a young age, he was fascinated with drawing and birding – this keen interest continued throughout his life.
His first art instruction was with Otto Grundman at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and then in 1883 in Paris at the Academie Julian where he studied the rigorous ‘ecole des beaux arts’ approach to drawing and painting for two years.
During the early 1880’s Seymour Haden visited Boston giving a series of lectures on etching. This introduction to the European etching...
