JEAN DON (DATES UNKNOWN) WAGON-RESTAURANT. 1953. 39 1/4x25 1/2 inches. S. C. I. P., Paris. Condition B+: repaired tears and restoration in margins; creases and pinholes in corners. A magazine illustrator whose work focussed on celebrities of the era, Don also designed posters. This image, both graceful and whimsical, focusses on the diners in a wagon restaurant, who are all paying close attention to the waiter making his way down the aisle; it is intentionally vague as to whether their attention is on the fine food he is bringing out, or on whether he will remain on his feet with his tray in the air. Wagons-Lits 250.
