Once married, him and his wife made their home in France and Switzerland from 1921 until 1934. Already widely respected as a printmaker prior to his departure for Europe, he became internationally famous during his years abroad and was - and is - regarded as one of the greatest etchers of the Twentieth Century. In appreciation for his contribution to French art and culture, he was named to the Legion of Honor by the French government. ** Campbell Dodgson (1867-1948) was an art historian and museum curator. He was the Keeper of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum between 1912 and 1932.
