Jeanne Reynal

Jeanne Reynal (1903–1983) was a mosaicist and a significant figure of the New York School group of artists.

[3] At the age of twenty-four, Reynal spent a summer to England, France, and Italy with her siblings and her mother.

[3] Two years later, Reynal began an apprenticeship with Anrep in Europe after assisting him with a mosaic he installed in the Bank of England.

[3] Reynal left Paris in 1937 and moved to California, where she worked in a potting shed in Marin County.

[3] After living in California for eight years, Reynal returned to her Greenwich Village, New York studio in 1946.

Reynal embraced the layered effect of mosaics, as they could stand alone, be a part of architecture, or engage with nature.
