EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Clear Glass Cruet, created by American artist V. L. Vance around 1941, is a stunning example of mid-20th century decorative arts. The cruet, with its elegant and functional design, is a testament to the artistic innovation and craftsmanship of the era. Vance, whose full name is not known beyond the initials, masterfully captured the essence of this clear glass container in his watercolor, graphite, and colored pencil drawing. The intricate details of the caster and the delicate curves of the cruet are rendered with remarkable precision and artistry. The use of color and contrast in the drawing highlights the transparency and clarity of the glass, making it appear as if the viewer can almost see the liquid within. The Clear Glass Cruet is a period item from the 1930s and 1940s, a time when functional objects were often imbued with artistic value. This cruet would have been a prized possession in any American household during this era, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the table. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is the current home of this impressive work of art. The cruet is an important addition to the gallery's Index of American Design, which documents and preserves the artistic heritage of the United States. The cruet's inclusion in this prestigious collection is a testament to its historical and artistic significance.
