Violeta Janes - Hints for Holidays 1938

Hints for Holidays, 1938

Violeta Janes's original pastel drawing, Hints for Holidays, 1938 dates from the 1930's decade when whe was commissioned by a number of companies to create advertising images for magazines and posters. It is a most striking example of her gifts as an illustrative, art deco artist.

This original pastel drawing entitled "Hints for Holidays, 1938" was created by the British Artist, Violeta Janes. It is drawn upon 'Winsor & Newton's Fashion Plate Drawing Board, Rathbone Place, London", signed by the artist in pencil along the lower right margin.
 
Title: Hints for Holidays, 1938
Artist: Janes, Violeta (Buenos Aires, 1910 - Hartfordshire, England, 1994)
Date: 1938
Medium: Original Pastel Drawing
Note: Violeta Janes: The daughter of British diplomats, Violeta Janes spent her youth in Argentina. Showing early artistic promise, she was sent to London (c. 1928) to study at the Regent Street Polytechnic School of Art and at the City and Guilds School of Art. Violeta Janes completed her education at the Watford School of Art. During this time she was fortunate to study intensively under two of England's finest portrait and figure artists; A. R. Middleton Todd (1891-1967) and Augustus John (1878-1961).
  Violeta Janes first gained recognition in the 1930's as both an illustrative and commercial artist. She illustrated stories and articles for children's periodicals and was even commissioned in this capacity to work for the Disney Studios in London. As well she created some striking textile designs and original watercolours and pastel drawings for advertising in the Art Deco style.
  By the end of the Second World War Janes had turned almost exclusively to portrait and figure painting. Her art was regularly exhibited at such major venues as the Royal Academy (from 1948), the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, the Pastel Society and at the Paris Salon. She was also invited to participate in the Bilan de l'Art Contemporain Exhibition at the Place de Louvre, Paris. Solo exhibitions of her art took place in London at the Broomfield Museum and at the Mayfair Art Gallery, as well as in Quebec City, at the Municipal Congress Centre. Violeta Janes was a full member of the Federation of British Artists, the United Society of Artists and the Societe Francais, Paris.
  Hints for Holidays, 1938 dates from the 1930's decade when Violeta Janes was commissioned by a number of companies to create advertising images for magazines and posters. It was no doubt intended as a commercial travel poster for an agency using the 'SR' logo seen here to the lower right. It is a most striking example of her gifts as an illustrative, art deco artist and was no doubt reproduced as advertising by this travel agency at this time.
Provenance: From the collection of Margarita Trull the artist's sister.
