19216801Oakland: Roi Partridge 1921 Original etching on steel-faced copper. 6 7/8 x 61/8 inches impression. Black ink on laid rag paper. Signed and dated within the plate at lower right Roi Partridge 1921. A very fine example expertly framed and glazed. A wonderful example of this artist's work. Unlike many of his etchings which are bold and rather abstract Lone Pine is delicate and detailed and is one of a total edition of 65 impressions. The plate was then canceled. The etching is signed in pencil at the center of the lower margin "Roi Partridge." Roi George Partridge was born in Washington Territory in 1888. In 1909 the budding artist traveled to New York City for one year of art study at the National Academy of Design followed by studies in etching in Munich under Brockhoff. Partridge's next three years were spent in Paris where he worked as a printmaker. He returned to Seattle in 1914 and in 1915 forty-four of his etchings were shown at the Panama Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco. At this point Partridge decided to make California his home and moved to San Francisco in 1917. He began teaching at Mills College in Oakland in 1920 and became the first director of the school's art gallery. His first marriage was to the famed photographer Imogen Cunningham. Partridge continued etching until his retirement in 1954. He had achieved international recognition as one of America's greatest artists specializing almost exclusively in the art of etching. Partridge held memberships in the National Academy of Design California Society of Etchers; Chicago Society of Etchers San Francisco Art Association and more. He won medals at various exhibitions including the National Academy of Design 1910 Art Institute of Chicago 1921 the Los Angeles County Museum of Art 1922 Mills College 1930 etc. Partridge's work is held in many institutional collections including the National Museum of American Art Oakland Museum De Young Museum San Francisco Museum of Art the California State Library San Diego Museum Los Angeles County Museum and on and on.
