Benton Murdoch Spruance

American printmaker
June 25, 1904–December 6, 1967

Spruance was born and died in Philadelphia. He was a long-term faculty member and Chairman of the Arts Department at Beaver College in Jenkintown, PA, as well as Chairman of the Printmaking Department of the Philadelphia College of Art.

As a printmaker, Spruance was known for his innovations in color lithography with series of works relating to mythological and religious themes, as well as portraiture.
