A fine art poster of "Untitled (student drawing after Alphonse Mucha)" by Eugenie Shonnard. 20" H x 16"W on poster paper.

Born in Yonkers, New York, Eugenie Shonnard (1886-1978) studied with Art Nouveau master Alphonse Mucha at the New York School of Applied Design for Women and later with Auguste Rodin and Antoine Bourdelle in Paris. She first came to New Mexico in 1925 at the invitation of Edgar Lee Hewett, founder of the New Mexico Museum of Art, and was given studio space in the museum. In 1927, she returned to New Mexico from Paris for an exhibition at the Museum of Art featuring the busts she made of Native American models and, on that trip, she made New Mexico her permanent home. Shonnard’s subject matter reflected her interest in the distinctive cultures she found in New Mexico, and she soon earned a national reputation for insightful depictions of the Indigenous people of North America and the folk traditions of the Southwest.
