EDITORS COMMENTS
This Weather Vane Finial, created by American artist Helen Hobart in 1938, is a stunning example of mid-20th century art and design. The graphite drawing on paperboard depicts a weather vane in the shape of a galloping horse and rider, a common motif in American folk art. The intricate details of the horses' manes and tails, as well as the rider's clothing and hat, showcase Hobart's exceptional drafting skills. The Weather Vane Finial is a period item from the 1930s, a time when the United States was undergoing significant cultural and artistic transformations. This piece reflects the country's rural heritage and love for horses, which were an integral part of American life during that era. The Weather Vane Finial is not only an artistic masterpiece but also a functional object that would have once adorned the top of a barn or stable. The metal weather vane would have helped farmers and ranchers determine the direction of the wind, an essential piece of information for their daily work. This Weather Vane Finial is now part of the Index of American Design, a collection of over 18,000 drawings and photographs of American decorative arts and crafts, held at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. It is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States and the importance of preserving and celebrating the art and design of the past.
