About Jeanne Reynal

Jeanne Reynal was born in 1903 in Whiteplains, New York. Reynal pioneered a new type of mosaic that took on a more contemporary and abstract approach.
At the time the standard for mosaics was a Byzantine approach that was very ordered and flat. Reynal flipped that on its head and added great texture and depth to her work. She was a master of using glass in her work. Although cutting individual pieces of glass for her work took a great deal of time, the effect was it gave a much greater surface to reflect and refract light.
