Oils by James Stevenson

- Dimensions: 37" x 49"

- Oil on canvas, newly framed in painted off-white. Certificate of authenticity provided. 

- Our studio is proud to offer a collection of original oil paintings by the late James Stevenson, a celebrated artist, New Yorker cartoonist, and author. 

- Stevenson is best known for the work produced during his 50-year tenure at The New Yorker magazine: 79 iconic covers, 1,988 cartoons, plus numerous Talk of the Town features that he both illustrated and wrote. Born in Manhattan in 1929, James grew up in Croton-on-Hudson and worked as an office boy at The New Yorker while on summer vacation. He went on to attend Yale University, serve in the Marines, and work as a reporter for Life magazine. He joined The New Yorker as an "idea man" in 1956. Away from the title, he was the author and illustrator of more than 100 delightful children's books. Later, he became a contributor to The New York Times where he began a series for the Op-Ed page titled "Lost and Found New York." His prolific artistic practice is beautifully chronicled in Sally Williams' documentary film, Stevenson: Lost and Found, which was released after his death in 2017 at the age of 87. 

- Curated with Stevenson’s wife, the artist Josie Merck, the series includes imaginative oils on canvas that explore varied subject matter– from printed ephemera to still life, intriguing figure studies to dreamy interiors. All bear the hallmark of a boundlessly curious mind, optimistic point of view, and singular, delightful eye.

- Stevenson’s legacy lives on through the artist residency founded by his wife in Cos Cob, Connecticut, The Lost & Found Lab. The Lab’s mission is to provide a work and living space to visual artists, scholars, curators, writers, composers, arts professionals and interdisciplinary thinkers drawn to exploring the relationship between visual art and the written word.
