Cast Iron Balcony Rail, c. 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite work of art by American artist Ray Price, showcasing his exceptional talent in capturing the essence of architectural details. This pen and ink drawing on paper takes us back to the 1930s in the United States, a time of intricate design and ornate decoration. The image presents a cast iron balcony rail, a common architectural feature during the 20th century, particularly in urban areas. The railing, with its delicate and intricate ironwork, is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the era. The railing's sinuous curves and delicate patterns are expertly rendered in black ink, creating a striking contrast against the white background. The railing's location is not explicitly stated, but the absence of modern elements in the drawing suggests that it may have been part of a heritage building or an art center, perhaps in a city like New York or Chicago. The cast iron balcony rail is a period item that embodies the beauty and elegance of the 1930s, a time when ornate details were highly valued in both art and architecture. Ray Price's "Cast Iron Balcony Rail, c. 1936" is an essential addition to any collection of decorative arts or architectural drawings. It is a valuable artifact that not only showcases the artist's skill but also offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies and beauty of a bygone era. This drawing is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The gallery's acquisition of this work underscores its importance as a significant piece of American art and cultural heritage.
