Stow WengenrothWengenroth is known as a lithographer, painter, writer, teacher, and illustrator. Born in 1906 in Brooklyn, New York, he studied at the Art Students League,
Grand Central School of Art in New York and summers at Woodstock, New York and Eastport, Maine. His perseverance with lithography earned him a
reputation much more than just a competent printmaker. Wengenroth's precise draftsmanship, beautiful textural qualities and tonal values in his lithographs,
prompted Andrew Wyeth to say, "he's the greatest black and white artist in America." Wengenroth also had a great fondness for nature and portrayed
many avian friends, especially owls, which seemed to be his favorite.
