EDITORS COMMENTS
John Dana's captivating watercolor, graphite, and gouache rendering of his candlestick design, titled "Candlestick," dates back to the 1930s. This intriguing piece, created by the American artist in the 20th century, showcases Dana's exceptional skill in the decorative arts. The candlestick, with its distinctive, elongated shape, is reminiscent of a tall, slender building, its green color adding an element of natural charm. The candlestick, a period item from the 1930s and 1940s, is not only a functional piece of art but also a beautiful work of design. Its blown glass base, with its elegant curves and intricate details, contrasts beautifully with the sleek, minimalist lamp base. The candlestick's design is a testament to the artistic ingenuity of the era, a time when functional objects were not only expected to serve a purpose but also to be aesthetically pleasing. This artwork, now a cherished piece of heritage art, was once part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s. The candlestick, with its rich history and timeless appeal, is a must-have for any art enthusiast or collector, adding a touch of elegance and charm to any home or gallery. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is fortunate to have this exquisite piece in its collection, showcasing the beauty and artistry of American glassware from the 20th century. This artwork, with its vibrant green color and intricate details, is a testament to the enduring legacy of John Dana and his contributions to the world of decorative arts.
