Perham Wilhelm Nahl also known as Perham Nahl (January 11, 1869 – April 9, 1935) was an American printmaker, painter, illustrator and an arts educator active in Northern California. ==Biography== Perham Wilhelm Nahl was born to Annie (née Sweeny) and Hugo Wilhelm Arthur Nahl in San Francisco.〔 He first studied art with his father, fine art printmaker Hugo Wilhelm Arthur Nahl and his uncle, fine art painter Charles Christian Nahl. He later attended the Mark Hopkins Institute (from 1899-1906) to study art.〔 From January until May 1906 he taught at UC Berkeley in the architecture department but felt he needed to learn more, so he set off to Europe to study anatomy at the Akademie Heyman in Munich, Germany. On his return to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1907, he became one of the founding members of the School of the California Guild of Arts and Crafts, and taught figure drawing〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.cca.edu/about/history )〕 until his death in 1935.〔 In 1915 at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition (PPIE), Nahl’s ''13th Labor of Hercules'' lithographic poster was selected as the official image and was featured on maps, book covers and catalogues of the exposition, advertised worldwide. The image features a muscular, male, nude straddled between two bodies of land symbolizing the Culebra Cut in the Panama Canal.〔 In 1926 he received a prize from the California Society of Etchers.〔 He died on April 9, 1935 in San Francisco, from injuries sustained when he was hit by a car. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Perham Wilhelm Nahl」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
