Roxie Munro
European Street Scene - Original Ink Line Drawing

20th Century

About the Item

European Street Scene - Original Ink Line Drawing by Roxie Munro (American b. 1945.) Detailed architectural drawing of a European street scene, potentially Paris, by prominent illustrator and painter Roxie Munro. A street separates two rows of buildings, quickly bending and disappearing behind the building on the right. The buildings appear to be in the Second Empire French architecture style. The bottoms of the buildings curve with the street, providing a sense of movement. The foreground of the piece remains open, allowing the intricate details of the architecture to shine. Signed in bottom right corner: "Roxie Munro" Roxie Munro was born in Texas in 1945 and grew up in Southern Maryland. She studied art at the University of Maryland, the Maryland Institute College of Art, and the University of Hawaii. She initially worked in D.C. as an illustrator for court cases as well as publications such as the Washington Post and the Associated Press. Munro began visiting and exhibiting in New York in the late 1970s and she officially moved there in 1981 after the New Yorker began acquiring her art. Her art has been used as the cover of the New Yorker fourteen times throughout her career. After moving to New York, she focused her art on painting cityscapes and illustrating children's books. She has authored and illustrated over 55 children's books and her book "The Inside-Outside Book of New York City" won Best Illustrated Children's Book from the New York Times and TIME Magazine's best children's book. Her art has been exhibited nationwide in institutions such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Chicago Art Institute, the Corcoran Gallery in D.C., the San Francisco Art Institute, and the High Museum in Atlanta.
