Passages

Aquatint – Image Size 9.25 X 9 inches

William Behnken of Manhattan was born in 1943 and has works in many museums including the Metropolitan Museum, the British Museum and Brooklyn Museum. His art emphasizes the remarkable contrast of light and darkness in his images of the city and stunning still-life scenes such as the one shown in “Passages,” an aquatint printed by longtime PCA member Kathleen Caraccio with 150 prints and 11 artist’s proofs from a steel-faced plate. This image was selected to be placed in the New York Public Library Print Collection.
