About the Item
'Two Women' by Jean Negulesco, Continuous Line Drawing, BAFTA, Maltese Falcon, Oscar, Hollywood
----
Signed lower left 'Negulesco' for Jean Negulesco (Romanian-American, 1900-1993) and dated 1969
A substantial, continuous line, figural drawing by this notable, Romanian-born painter, film director and set designer. Jean Negulesco was the original director on "The Maltese Falcon". He was nominated for an Oscar for his directing 'Johnny Belinda' and a BAFTA award for 'How to Marry a Millionaire".
Born in Romania, Jean Negulesco studied in Vienna in his teens. In 1919, he moved to Bucharest, where he worked as a painter before becoming a stage decorator in Paris. In 1927, he arrived in New York with an exhibition of his artwork and, after initial success, he settled in Hollywood. He continued to exhibit successfully as an artist, while becoming increasingly occupied with his successful film career. Negulesco was the original director of 1941’s “The Maltese Falcon” and, in 1948, was nominated for an Academy Award for directing “Johnny Belinda”. In 1955, he was also nominated for a BAFTA Award for Best Director for “How to Marry a Millionaire”, starring Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe, and Betty Grable. We are pleased to offer a lyrical figural work by this notable American Modernist.

Jean Negulesco
Painter. Born in Craiova, Romania on Feb. 29, 1900. Negulesco came to the U.S. in 1927 and lived in New York and Washington, DC before moving to Seattle. By the late 1920s he had settled in Hollywood, California. During the Depression he appears to have abandoned painting in favor of film directing. His directing credits include such films as "Johnny Belinda" and "Three Coins in a Fountain" Upon retirement in the late 1960s, Negulesco settled in the Mediterranan coastal town of Marbella, Spain where he remained until his demise on July 18, 1993.
