EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning side chair, created by American artist Mary Berner in 1936, is a testament to the beauty and craftsmanship of the Decade of Depression-era design. The Side Chair, as it is known, is a masterful fusion of functional design and artistic expression. The chair's black wood frame, intricately carved with geometric patterns, is complemented by a vibrant upholstered seat in multicolored hues. The watercolor and graphite on paper design, which serves as the chair's blueprint, reveals the meticulous process behind this work of art. Mary Berner, an accomplished artist and designer, was a leading figure in the American Decorative Arts scene during the 1930s and 1940s. Her innovative approach to traditional furniture design earned her a place in the Index of American Design. This side chair, with its unique blend of modernity and tradition, is a prime example of Berner's ability to create functional objects that are also works of art. The Side Chair, now a cherished item in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of American design. Its presence in the gallery serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of this period piece, which continues to inspire and captivate audiences today.
