About the Item
Bucolic watercolor by Saturday Evening Post illustrator, Stevan Dohanos, (1907-1994).
The painting measures: 7" H x 8" W. Frame size is approximately 18" H x 18 3/4" W.
It is in excellent condition and is signed and dated lower left “Stevan Dohanos 1934.”
It’s a beautiful example of his 'American Realist' style.
Dohanos was a founder of the Famous Artists School in Westport, Connecticut.
Stevan Dohanos (1907-1994) was born in the steel mill town of Lorain, Ohio and studied at the Cleveland School of art. He is best known for the covers, more than 100, he painted for "The Saturday Evening Post" magazine during the 1940s and 1950s. His work appeared frequently on its covers. Most of his illustrations depicted common scenes of everyday post-war American life such as a mobile home complete with pink flamingo, a gas station attendant inflating a child's toy, or a souped-up motorcycle in the owner's driveway. His works are often compared to those of Norman Rockwell. Dohanos was influenced by 'The Eight' (Henri, Sloan, Glackens, Shinn, Prendergast, Davies, Lawson, Luks). During the 1960s, his designs were used on twenty-five postage stamps. From 1961-1963, he served as President of the Society of Illustrators and in 1971 was elected to the Society's Hall of Fame. His home was Westport, Connecticut.

Joe Eula Watercolor of a Sunflower
By Joe Eula
Located in New York, NY
From the 1950s to the 80s, Joe Eula cut quite a figure on the New York scene as a graphic, costume, fashion, stage-set, and film-set designer, as well as a stylist, party giver, and, briefly, a model agency macher. In addition, he was an artist. You could say that Eula was the art director extempore of Manhattan. And if you’ve never heard of Eula (or hadn’t before David Pittu played him in the recent Netflix Halston series), it’s because he was famous as an eminence grise, to employ a contradiction in terms. That’s why Andy Warhol called him, in typical Warholian hyperbole, “the most important man in New York.”
Eula came from a hardscrabble background in South Norwalk, Connecticut. After serving in World War II, he took classes on the GI Bill at the Art Students League, and formed a partnership with photographer Milton Greene to produce features for Life and Look magazines, and a couple of films, with Greene behind the camera, and Eula painting backdrops and styling. On his own, Eula illustrated Eugenia Sheppard’s famous newspaper fashion column, did illustration work for Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, designed ballet costumes and sets for Jerome Robbins, an album cover for Miles Davis, and a benefit invitation for Cesar...
