The Amy Worthen papers date from 1995 to 2020 and measure 2.5 linear inches (1 box). The papers consist of three folders with material related to Worthen’s work as an artist and member of the Des Moines art community. A Print Council of America newsletter includes an article Worthen wrote about Louise Noun, art collector and co-founder of the Iowa Women’s Archives. The rest of the material relates to specific works of art and exhibitions. There is a press booklet and newspaper clipping about a limited-edition book which Worthen published in 1994, “Sotoporteghi Veneziani;” the set of twelve engravings depict a journey in Venice, Italy. Also included is an artist’s proof of an original engraving of the Iowa state capitol, commissioned by the Iowa Economic Development Authority in celebration of the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage. Reproductions of the engraving were to be used by Iowa’s foreign trade delegations as official gifts of the state. Finally, an exhibition catalog for Worthen’s 2017 exhibit at the Brunnier Art Museum (Iowa State University) provides an in-depth history and analysis of Worthen’s career and development as an artist, along with many illustrations of her work.
