Artist

Gustave Baumann

Gustave Baumann (American, 1881–1971) drew on the invigorating influences of European and American artists, along with watercolor painters and Native American potters, to produce complex color woodblock prints that reveal a country both delicate and rugged, personal and mythic. Brought from Germany to Chicago as a boy, Baumann supported his family financially while still a teenager, when he worked at an engraver’s and discovered an affinity for printmaking. He took night classes in art and saved enough money to study block printing in Munich. Back in the United States, his travels brought him to New Mexico, where he perfected his signature style and for more than 50 years captured the crystalline light and rich colors of the Southwest with affection and subtlety.

Fantastic

I buy boxes of cards for friends and family as well as myself, and Pomegranate is now the *only* place I buy cards. The choices suit various artistic tastes, the colors are magnificent, and the price seems fair to both the business and the buyer.

The calenders are so beautiful that I keep them beyond the year.
