Information
has gloss	eng: Annie G. Hunter (1860 – 1927) was an English professional artist and illustrator, best known for her reproduction drawings of pre-Columbian Maya monuments and inscriptions. In the late 1890s Hunter was commissioned by the early Mayanist scholar Alfred Maudslay to record Maya monuments both in situ and in museum holdings, for publication in his pioneering archaeological and iconographic surveys. Her work provided an important basis for the study of Maya iconography and inscriptions in the early 20th century, with the careful renderings giving scholars access to texts that otherwise would be difficult to study. After the success of her work with Maudslay gained her acclaim, in the post-World War I period Hunter was commissioned by the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology to provide watercolour and line-drawn illustrations of Maya ceramics artefacts held in a number of collections, for publication in portfolio.
