EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a selection of border designs from Mildred E Bent's proposed portfolio of Maine Wall Stencils, created between 1935 and 1942. Bent, an American artist of the 20th century, masterfully combined watercolor gouache and graphite on paperboard to bring these intricate and vibrant designs to life. The portfolio represents a fascinating glimpse into the decorative arts of the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The border designs, filled with floral motifs and intricate patterns, exude a sense of heritage and tradition. The colors and motifs used in these designs are reminiscent of the natural beauty of Maine, with its lush greenery, wildflowers, and coastal landscapes. The border designs are not only visually stunning but also serve as a testament to Bent's artistic talent and creativity. Bent's work is a valuable addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s. These designs were not intended for commercial use but rather for artistic expression and potential use as wall stencils. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. holds this portfolio as part of its extensive collection, making it accessible for art enthusiasts and scholars to study and appreciate the rich history of American art and design. The border designs in this portfolio reflect the unique character and charm of Maine and the United States during the 1930s and 1940s, a period marked by both economic hardship and artistic innovation. Bent's work continues to inspire and captivate audiences, showcasing the enduring beauty and significance of American art and design.
