Estate of W.E. Dassonville & Fine Art
Hess Fine Auctions is proud to present the photography and estate of William Edward Dassonville
Dassonville (b.1879-d.1957) was a California photographer primarily known for his landscapes. He was an associate of Ansel Adams and worked with William Keith, George Stirling, Maynard Dixon, and John Miur. Born in Sacramento, CA, he acted as secretary of the California Camera Club and contributed to Camera Craft. He also invented a velvety surfaced printing paper that he later manufactured commercially (REF: Getty). His chemistry was heralded by Ansel Adams and Imogen Cunningham, and he exhibited alongside Alfred Stieglitz, Clarence White, and Gertrude Kasebier.
Proceeds from the sale of this lot will benefit the Shriners Hospital for Children. In addition to most of the works being estate stamped we have identified several prints additionally carrying the Donald P. Dassonville signed authentication stamp.
This Auction will also feature a number of great Fine Art pieces from well known artist like Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro, and many more.
