About the Item

Drawing in ink and watercolor of a private yacht. Signed by the artist on the front. Jean Hannon grew up in Boston and attended the School at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and L’Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris. In the 1950s, Hannon moved to Paris and received commissions from such varied clients as The Paris Review and haute decorateur Vincent Fourcade. Upon the recommendation of the legendary editor Diana Vreeland, who took an abiding interest in the young artist, Hannon had her first solo exhibition in 1960 at the Country Gallery in Locust Valley, followed by two shows at the prestigious Alexander Iolas Gallery in 1960 and 1961. Here she showed ink portraits of animals, including camels, ostriches, and lions often enlivened by colorwash, which were also sold by Pamela Churchill Hayward (later Harriman) at the New York outpost of Jansen. Richly hued and patterned oil paintings of interior still-lifes and mysterious floral watercolors en grisaille characterize the artist's more recent work. She lives in New York City and Pawling NY.
