North End of Telegraph Hill
Etching, 1918, 239 x 179 mm., Winkler 35, Library of Congress 45. Fine impression on laid paper with full margins, signed in pencil and from the edition of about 70. Before the Twenties, most of the important etching work in the United States took place in the East, albeit with a little circle around Bertha Jaques in Chicago. But out in San Francisco, an Austrian immigrant was etching aspects of that city and building a body of work that got him declared at one time “America’s greatest etcher.” Winkler focused on three aspects of San Francisco: Chinatown, the wharves and fishing boats, and the dwellings, many on Telegraph Hill, of the Spanish and Italian fishermen. It was his belief that the dwellings reflected the people who lived in them and that attitude made his representations so much more than studies of picturesque architecture. They were portraits of the places of people, superbly drawn and etched.
