Description
In 1915, the year before his death, the American wood engraver Henry Wolf won the Grand Prize for his printmaking at the Panama Pacific Exposition in San Francisco. The Wolf prints we have were available for sale at the PPIE and many, such as this, were the actual prints exhibited and have the label from the PPIE, with his return address and the edition size and original price of $18.00 noted. Fritz Von Uhde was a member of the Munich Secession group with Liebermann, Slevogt and Corith. He was known for his religious subject matter. The painting for this print, done in 1891, is illustrated on page 59 of "Kunstler Monographien - Von Uhde" by Fritz von Ostini, 1911, Verlag von Velahge & Klasing.
