Chest, c. 1939
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating work of art created by the talented American artist, Grace Bolser. This masterpiece, dated back to the 1930s-1940s, is a beautiful representation of the decorative arts from the United States during that period. The artwork is a watercolor, colored pencil, gouache, and graphite rendering on paperboard, showcasing Bolser's exceptional skill in various mediums. The subject of the artwork is a wooden chest, a common household item in the United States during the 20th century. The chest is depicted in pristine white, standing proudly against a plain background, allowing the intricate details of its design to take center stage. The chest's simple yet elegant lines, clean curves, and symmetrical shape are reminiscent of the minimalist design trends of the time. Bolser's use of color and shading adds depth and dimension to the chest, making it appear three-dimensional. The white color of the chest is contrasted with the darker shades used to highlight its intricate carvings and details, creating a stunning visual effect. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the way she has captured the texture of the wood and the precise lines of the chest's decorative elements. This artwork is a testament to the rich heritage of American art and design during the 1930s and 1940s. It is a period piece that transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of a bygone era. The artwork is currently housed in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. Bolser's "Chest, c. 1939" is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, decorative arts, or the history of furniture design.
