Weather Vane
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating graphite drawing on paperboard by the American artist Rollington Campbell, created in the 1930s. This intriguing artwork showcases Campbell's exceptional talent for capturing the essence of functional objects with artistic flair. The subject of the drawing is a classic weather vane, an iconic symbol of American heritage and a practical tool used to indicate wind direction. The weather vane in this drawing is depicted in exquisite detail, with each curve, line, and arrow meticulously rendered to bring out its unique character. The arrow-shaped finial atop the vane, which once rotated to indicate wind direction, is shown with a sense of dynamic energy, as if it is about to turn and catch the next gust of wind. The vane's intricate decorative elements, such as the scrollwork and foliate motifs, are rendered with a delicate touch, adding to the overall charm of the piece. This drawing is a testament to Campbell's skill as an artist and his ability to transform a simple, functional object into a work of art. The use of graphite on paperboard lends the drawing a sense of depth and texture, making the weather vane appear almost three-dimensional. The measurements of the drawing are not provided, but it is known to be a scale drawing, indicating the artist's attention to detail and accuracy. The "Weather Vane" drawing by Rollington Campbell is an important addition to the decorative arts collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a valuable contribution to the Index of American Design. This artwork is a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when functional objects were not only practical but also works of art in their own right. The "Weather Vane" drawing is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, the 1930s and 1940s, or the history of weather vanes in the United States.
