EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Chemise, c. 1936" by Rosalia Lane, transports us back to the vibrant and dynamic 1930s in America. The graphite drawing on paperboard showcases a woman wearing a simple yet elegant chemise, a popular fashion trend during the era. The front view reveals the woman's graceful pose, her arms delicately crossed in front of her, while the back view offers a peek into the intricate detailing of the dress, including the lace-trimmed straps and the subtle texture of the fabric. The chemise, a loose-fitting, sleeveless garment, was a staple in women's wardrobes during the 1930s. Its timeless design, which emphasized the natural shape of the female form, was a departure from the restrictive fashions of the previous decade. This piece, with its understated yet alluring appeal, is a testament to the evolving fashion landscape of the time. Rosalia Lane, an accomplished artist, expertly captured the essence of this period piece in her drawing. The woman's confident and poised stance, combined with the intricate detailing of the dress, makes for a captivating work of art. This piece, now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., serves as an invaluable addition to our cultural heritage, offering a glimpse into the fashion, art, and social history of the United States during the 1930s.
