About the Item

NEW YORK CITY: GRAND HYATT is an original hand drawn lithograph created in 1983 by the NY woman artist, Joan Melnick. NEW YORK CITY: GRAND HYATT was Inspired by the architectural design elements of the NYC landmark Grand Central Terminal and Grand Hyatt Hotel, NYC Midtown East. NEW YORK CITY: GRAND HYATT portrays the reflective glass facade of the hotel and sculptural ornamentation of Grand Central Terminal's southern facade, modeled after a Roman triumphal arch, symbolizing the triumph of the railroad. The sculptural facade by Jules Coutan was also envisioned as a gateway to the city, the figural group depicting Mercury (the god of commerce) supported by Minerva and Hercules (representing mental and moral strength). Print size - 29 x 21.75 inches, unframed, excellent condition, pencil signed by Joan Melnick Year published -1983 Edition size - 250, plus proofs Printer - J K Fine Art Editions Co. NY Joan Melnick (b.1942 New York) began painting at an early age. She is an internationally exhibited American visual artist and a professor of interior design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Melnick studied Interior Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology and subsequently took up printmaking and painting as a course of study at SUNY New Paltz, where she garnered a Masters in Art. Joan Melnick is considered a colorist, extraordinarily sensitive to the expressive and evocative roles that color plays in art and nature. Usually subtle and fragile, sometimes direct and bold, she handles her transitions from light to shadow with absolute precision. She controls the delicate balance of color, light, and form in a painterly parallel to organic growth.
