About the Item

Charles Surendorf (1906-1956) Original Lino-Cut titled “San Francisco Bay.” Edition size is 100. Image measures 9 1/4 x 13 3/8. Rests in a 16 x 20 archival mat. Unframed. Created Circa 1940's. In Excellent Condition. Some remnants of old tape are seen in the upper margin. Born in 1906 in Richmond, Indiana, Charles Surendorf, following graduation from Ohio State University, studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Students League in New York City. In 1935 he moved to the San Francisco Bay area and taught at Mills College. Active in the local art scene, he was director of the first San Francisco Art Festival. In 1946 he settled in the town of Columbia in the Sierra foothills. There he served as director of the short-lived Mother Lode Art School (1956) and produced works with an historic California theme. His paintings and prints depict the rough-and-tumble life of the old mining country in a regionalist style akin to that of Thomas Hart Benton. He died of cancer in Columbia in 1979.
