Lot Essay

In 1960, Emily Mason and Wolf Kahn traveled with their young daughter Cecily to the University of California at Berkeley, where Kahn taught as a visiting professor and exhibited a solo show. In addition to his own courses, Kahn also participated in group critiques with other painters, including Richard Diebenkorn, with whom they formed a friendship.
