This stunning scale drawing of a chair, created by American artist Edward Jewett in 1936, is a captivating piece of 20th-century art and design history. The intricately detailed pen and ink and graphite drawing on paper showcases Jewett's masterful use of line and shading to bring the wooden chair to life. The chair's simple yet elegant design is a testament to the artistic and cultural values of the 1930s in the United States. Measuring just 11.4 x 8.5 inches, this small-scale drawing offers a unique perspective on the art of furniture design. The chair's measurements are meticulously rendered, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and historians studying the evolution of furniture design during this period. Edward Jewett's "Chair (Scale Drawing), 1936" 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 collection documents the visual arts of the United States from the colonial period to the 1940s, providing a rich resource for the study of American art and culture. The chair's wooden structure is depicted in exquisite detail, with the grain of the wood and the texture of the upholstery rendered in precise, delicate lines. The drawing's use of color and shading adds depth and dimension, making it a visually stunning and engaging work of art. This scale drawing is not only a beautiful and intriguing piece of art but also a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the design sensibilities of the 1930s in America. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American art, design, and furniture.
