This block print from the archives of the Society was cut by artist Julia Homer Wilson (1910-2001) who lived and worked in Charleston for many years. Her signature is part of the print in the lower right-hand corner. The print originally appeared in a volume of Transactions of the Huguenot Society of South Carolina and the original block then entered the archives. With this special issue of prints for the 140th year of the Society, we are pleased to remember Ms. Wilson and her contribution to the Society of this fine work. Ms. Wilson attended the Cochran School of Art in Washington, D. C., the Slade School of Art in London, the Academy of Fine Art in Perugia, Italy, and she later studied under some of the most talented artists of the time, including Oscar Kokoschka and Robert Brachman. In South Carolina she often participated in art shows and talks with fellow Charleston residents Elizabeth O'Neill Verner and John Henry Dick.
Each block print will differ as the nature of block printing is a variation of ink saturation from print to print.
