Benjamin Chambers Brown was a leading figure in the California Plein-Air movement and a pioneer of the state’s printmaking tradition. After studying at the St. Louis School of Fine Arts and the Académie Julian in Paris, he settled in Pasadena, where he became renowned for his vibrant landscapes. In 1914, he co-founded the Printmakers Society of California, an organization instrumental in elevating etching to a respected fine art form in the West. As noted on the label, an impression of “Outward Bound” was selected for the Printmakers Society of California’s annual exhibit in March 1915.
