Focus on - Jean Dryden Alexander

This week at Hatfield Hines Gallery we are proud to unveil our newly acquired collected works by the renowned East Anglian artist Jean Dryden Alexander.

Fifth child and youngest daughter of noted Victorian watercolorists Robert G.D. Alexander and Effie Alexander, Jean spent an idyllic childhood en plein air in the Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex countryside learning to paint and draw with her parents and siblings as well as other noted artists of their circle including H.B. Brabazon and Sir George Clausen.

Influenced by Turner and Constable as well as her parents' own art tutors Henry Tonks and Mark Fisher, Alexander's work displays her natural gift for capturing the transient moods and intensity of light of the East Anglian landscape.
