Card Table, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pen and ink and graphite on paper drawing by American artist Jack Carr. This exquisite work of art, created during the 1930s, showcases a card table that epitomizes the decorative arts and design sensibilities of the period. The table, with its intricate details and elegant lines, is a testament to Carr's exceptional drafting skills and his ability to capture the essence of a beloved American household item. Measuring approximately 11 x 14 inches (28 x 35.6 cm), this scale drawing invites viewers to step back in time to the Thirties in the United States. The card table, a common piece of homeware in American households during this era, is depicted with meticulous attention to detail. From the ornate legs and curved apron to the delicate inlaid pattern on the tabletop, every detail is rendered with precision and care. This artwork, now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a valuable addition to the gallery's extensive collection of 20th-century American art. It serves as an important cultural artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and showcasing the rich heritage of American design and craftsmanship. The card table, a symbol of leisure and entertainment, is a concept that transcends time and continues to resonate with audiences today. Carr's drawing, with its beautiful lines and intricate details, invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of the past and the enduring allure of American design. Whether viewed in person at the National Gallery of Art or as a reproduction, this drawing is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American art and design.
