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 provide drawings and watercolored illustrations of Maya monuments. (She worked from casts, lintels and stelae in museum holdings, and photographs.) Her illustrations appeared in Maudlay's pioneering archaeological and iconographic survey Biologia Centrali-Americana: Archaeology (London: R.H. Porter and Dulau, 1889-1902).

| - 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 provide drawings and watercolored illustrations of Maya monuments. (She worked from casts, lintels and stelae in museum holdings, and photographs.) Her illustrations appeared in Maudlay's pioneering archaeological and iconographic survey Biologia Centrali-Americana: Archaeology (London: R.H. Porter and Dulau, 1889-1902). Hunter's work provided an important basis for the study of Maya iconography and inscriptions in the early 20th century; her careful renderings provide scholars access to texts that otherwise would be difficult to study. Hunter's work for Maudslay gained her acclaim, and after World War I she 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. Hunter is described in Ian Graham, Alfred Maudslay and the Maya: A Biography, (University of Oklahoma press, 2002), pp. 221–223. (en)
- Annie G. Hunter (1860 – 1927) fue una ilustradora y artista británica que ganó prestigio entre los arqueólogos de su época por sus dibujos, reproducciones y calcas de monumentos, estelas e inscripciones de la civilización maya precolombina. Hacia finales del siglo XIX Hunter fue comisionada por el mayista y académico Alfred Maudslay para realizar dibujos y acuarelas de monumentos mayas. Para desempeñar su trabajo usó dinteles, estelas, reproducciones en yeso y material museográfico, así como fotografías. El material que produjo fue publicado en la reconocida obra iconográfica y arqueológica de Maudslay, especialmente en Biologia Centrali-Americana: Archaeology (London: R.H. Porter and Dulau, 1889-1902). Ian Graham describe el trabajo de Hunter en su libro sobre Alfred Maudslay y los maya. La obra de Hunter proveyó material útil para el estudio de la iconografía maya a principios del siglo XX; la calidad y el detalle de sus ilustraciones dieron a los estudiosos acceso a material de otra manera difícil de examinar. A partir del éxito que obtuvo por sus trabajos con Maudslay, la Universidad de Pensilvania, a través de su museo de arqueología, ofreció a Hunter un contrato para que realizara acuarelas e ilustraciones de objetos de cerámica mayas a fin de publicarlas en diversas obras del museo. En esta tarea se concentró Hunter durante varios años. (es)
