Henry Wolf was born on August 3, 1852 in Eckwersheim, France. He lived in Strasbourg and studied under Jacques Levy and exhibited in Paris. Henry Wolf moved to New York City in 1871, where he created wood engravings of works by Gilbert Stuart, Enric Serra Auque, Frank Weston Benson, Howard Pyle, Henry Salem Hubbell, John Singer Sargent, A. B. Frost, Jan Vermeer, Jean Leon Gerome, Aime Morot, and Edouard Manet. Many of his engravings were published in Scribner's Magazine, Harper's Monthly, and Century Magazine. In 1896 he started engraving his own artwork. He exhibited 144 wood engravings at the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. He was awarded the Exposition's Grand Prize in printmaking that year. He died in home in New York City on March 18, 1916. His works are held in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Canton Museum of Art. Source: Wikipedia Images sell!
