EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Side Chair, created by American artist John Dana in the late 1930s, showcases the beauty and craftsmanship of the Decorative Arts movement during the 20th century. The chair, now a period piece, is a stunning example of functional art, blending both form and function in perfect harmony. John Dana's Side Chair, held in the prestigious collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States. The chair is adorned with intricate hand carving, depicting a majestic eagle in brown wood, its wings spread wide and its eyes piercingly sharp. The eagle, a symbol of power and freedom, adds an element of the natural world to this functional piece. The chair's design is further enhanced by the use of red upholstery, adding a pop of color against the brown wood. The upholstered seat and backrest provide both comfort and style, making this piece as much a work of art as it is a functional one. The Side Chair by John Dana is a masterpiece of wood carving, with the artist's skillful use of watercolor colored pencil and graphite on paperboard to bring the eagle to life. This piece, a true embodiment of the arts and crafts movement, is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the decorative arts, American art, or simply beautiful design. Whether displayed in an art centre, art gallery, or as a standalone piece in a home, the Side Chair by John Dana is sure to be a conversation starter and a source of pride for any collector or admirer of fine art and handicrafts.
