William Arthur Smith Benson originally studied Classics and Philosophy at Oxford, but after graduation he decided he would be more suited to architecture, combining art and engineering. Benson began metalworking and set up his own workshop where he created and sold new designs specializing in lighting. By 1900, Benson had reached his peak. In Paris, Benson's lamps were exhibited at Siegfrield Bing's gallery "Maison L'art Nouveau."
