Item description from seller

Original engraving of a man, a woman and a tree all fused together. Presumably a play on the Adam and Eve motif but entitled "Bound" by the artist. Pencil signed by Nahl in lower right and also signed in the plate. Sight size of 8 x 10 inches. A strong impression. Matted and glazed in the original frame bearing the original printed exhibition sticker that reads :The California Society of Etchers. Associate Membership, Prize Etching, 1926, by Perham W. Nahl, Professor of the Department of Art, University of California." Frame and mat a bit aged but etching is bright and strong.Perhan W. Nahl was the nephew of famed early California artist Charles Nahl. Perham Wilhelm Nahl was born to Annie (née Sweeny) and Hugo Wilhelm Arthur Nahl in San Francisco, California. By the mid-1870s the extended Nahl family had moved to the nearby island town of Alameda, where Perham first studied drawing and painting with both his father and his uncle, the fine art painter Charles Christian Nahl. Perham Nahl was employed as a lithographer at H. S. Crocker & Co. when in 1894 he married Nanette (?Nan?) Woods in Berkeley; the couple continued to live in Alameda. In the mid-1890s he staged before large audiences several risqué tableau vivants where naked models of both sexes were covered only with a thin layer of bronze pigment. His arrest and trial in New York City, where William Merritt Chase appeared in his defense, and subsequent scandals at home ended his theatrical career. From 1899 to 1901 he was a staff illustrator at the San Francisco Examiner. Nahl became a composer of popular music and served on the committee of the Alameda Coral Society. After divorcing his wife in 1902 he opened a studio in San Francisco and established his residence there, near the home of the Nahls? family friend, Frederick Meyer.Perham attended the Mark Hopkins Institute from 1899 to 1905 and studied under Charles C. Judson, Arthur Frank Mathews, John Stanton, Alice Chittenden, and Frederick Meyer. He won school prizes in life class, portrait drawing, composition, design, poster art, and painting, as well as a scholarship and a teaching certificate at graduation. From February until May 1906 he taught at U.C. Berkeley as the Instructor of Pen and Ink Drawing 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 in 1907, Nahl became one of the founding members of the School of the California Guild of Arts and Crafts in Berkeley, which became today?s California College of the Arts. Initially, Perham taught drawing, antique classes, and watercolor, and later added life classes for men and women, oil painting, and composition. He maintained an active teaching schedule until his death. In May 1908 Nahl married his second wife, Berkeley socialite and musician June Connor. He played a prominent role in the formation of the Berkeley Art Association in 1907 and the Berkeley League of Fine Arts in 1923. In 1912 Perham began a parallel career teaching in the art department of U.C. Berkeley, where he became a professor in 1929. He travelled frequently to Mexico, and his study of its modern muralists influenced his art. He was partly responsible for bringing an exhibition of drawings by Diego Rivera to U.C. Berkeley in 1926. Perham also became a leading authority on Japanese painting and was appointed curator of the massive Armes collection of oriental art at U.C. Berkeley.
