EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Brass Oil Lamp, created by American artist Russell Madole around 1939, is a stunning example of decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. The intricately detailed watercolor and graphite rendering on paperboard showcases Madole's exceptional artistic skills, capturing the essence of this functional yet elegant design. The Brass Oil Lamp, with its vintage charm, transports us back in time to a bygone era. The warm, inviting glow of the lamp, which is not depicted in this image, would have once illuminated homes and offices across the United States during the 20th century. The brass material, a popular choice for lighting fixtures during this period, adds a touch of sophistication and durability to the design. Madole's Brass Oil Lamp is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts, which was initiated by the Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the 1930s. This important collection, now housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., documents the rich cultural heritage of American art and design. This period item, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, is a testament to the artistic talent and creativity that flourished in the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. The Brass Oil Lamp by Russell Madole is not only a beautiful work of art but also a reminder of the functional and aesthetic value of design in our daily lives.
