The composition features two fishermen working under driving rain, rendered in Hansen’s distinctive linear style of the mid‑1970s.

About the Artist: Art Hansen (1929–2017) was a celebrated Pacific Northwest printmaker known for his expressive line work, intimate figurative scenes, and nature‑driven compositions. A Vashon Island native, Hansen studied at the University of Washington and the University of Minnesota before receiving a Fulbright to the Munich Academy of the Arts. His early career was marked by national recognition, including the Pulitzer Award for Art in 1951. Hansen’s work remains highly regarded for its clarity of line, regional character, and technical mastery across etching, lithography, and drawing.
