Chest of Drawers, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning work of art by American artist Florence Choate. This exquisite piece, created during the 1930s, is a perfect representation of the decorative arts movement of the 20th century. The chest of drawers, with its intricately carved wooden exterior, is a testament to Choate's mastery of wood carving and her keen eye for design. The chest, painted in rich, warm browns, is adorned with intricate patterns and motifs, each one meticulously carved by hand. The central panel features a beautiful mirror framed in a delicate floral design, adding an element of elegance and sophistication to the piece. The mirror, with its beveled edges, reflects the room around it, creating a sense of depth and dimension. The chest of drawers, which measures approximately 36 inches in height, is a period item that would have been a cherished possession in any American home during the 1930s and 1940s. Choate's use of watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite, along with some heightening on paper, adds a subtle, yet striking, contrast to the wooden exterior. This piece, now a part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a prime example of the heritage art and furniture that defined the United States during this era. The chest of drawers, with its timeless design and beautiful craftsmanship, continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists to this day. Whether displayed in a modern art gallery or in a traditional home setting, "Chest of Drawers, 1936" is a true masterpiece that transcends time and trends.
