Published state. Etching on zinc. The work is everywhere carried out to, and made even with, the edges of the plate. Reproduced. Fifty proofs, of which forty-nine are signed and numbered, on Shogun paper. Mr. Benson used the rich, granular line obtainable by etching on zinc three times. The plates are "Fish Hawk," (Ordeman #18), "Smelt Fisherman" (Ordeman #20) and "Geese Against the Sky" (Ordeman #38) . "Flight of Blue Bills" (Ordeman #67) is a drypoint made on a zinc plate.
