Description "Still Life With An Orange" oil on canvas was painted by James Mellor Hanson (1900-1963) in 1956. It is in excellent as found condition and mounted in a wonderful period frame. This was part of the Herbert F. Johnson Museum inventory till 20+ years ago when it became part of a prominent collection in East Hampton New York. The canvas measures: 24" H. by 29" W. The frame's exterior : 31.50" H. by 36.50" W. Hanson was born in Yorkshire, England in 1900. He left England in 1925 for Paris where he studied with Fernand Leger and Andre Andre Lhote and worked with Le Corbusier. He returned to England after 8 years and became part of the circle of artists that formed around Henry Moore and Ben Nicholson. By 1938 he had a Studio in NYC until he joined the art faculty at Cornell University, where he taught until his death in 1963. He exhibited widely at MOMA, Whitney, Art Institute of Chicago and the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburg. This Still Life is considered an example of his mature work, where he has taken his early influences from both Leger and Nicholson and created a style unique unto himself. This painting was kept in the artist's collection until his estate was given to Cornell University's Johnson Museum Of Art. His work is in several museum collections in the United States and England, including The Metropolitan Museum NYC, MoMA, the Nelson-Atkins in Kansas City, the White Museum at Cornell, National Museum Wales, National Museum Cardiff, and Bankfield Museum in Halifax, England, The Hepworth Wakefield, UK Partial exibition list: 1928 – Galerie Mots et Images, Paris 1928-32 – Salon des Independants, Paris 1929 – Galerie Aubier, Paris (group) 1935 – Galerie Jeanne Castel, Paris 1937-38 – Wertheim Gallery, London 1938 – Bankfield Museum, Halifax, England 1941-57 – Passedoit Gallery, New York (8 one-man exhibitions) 1943-50 – Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh (group) 1950 – Art Institute of Chicago (group) 1950 – Toledo Museum of Art, Ohio (group) 1953 – Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan (group) 1954 – MoMA, New York, 25th Anniv. exhibition (group) 1959 – Corcoran Gallery of Art, D.C.
