EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a vintage children's cape, created by American artist Gladys C. Parker in the late 1930s. The cape, titled "Child's Cape," is a stunning example of decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. The vibrant orange color of the cape's floral design stands out against the white background, creating a striking visual effect. The cape is adorned with intricate floral patterns, featuring scalloped edges and short sleeves with decorative trim. Gladys C. Parker expertly combined watercolor, graphite, and gouache on paper to bring this functional piece of clothing to life. The cape is a testament to the artistic talent and creativity of the period, showcasing the beauty and elegance of children's apparel during the 1930s and 1940s. This beautiful work of art is now part of the permanent collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a valuable addition to the Index of American Design. The cape's timeless design and charming aesthetic continue to captivate viewers, making it a cherished piece of American heritage art.
