Coffee Grinder, c. 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating graphite drawing on paperboard by the American artist Herman Bader. This exquisite work of art, created during the 1930s or 1940s, showcases Bader's exceptional talent for capturing the essence and beauty of everyday objects. The subject of the drawing is a traditional coffee grinder, a hand tool commonly used in the United States during the 20th century. The grinder, with its wooden body and metal components, is depicted in meticulous detail, from the intricate gears inside the mill to the subtle texture of the wood and the patina on the metal. The drawing not only captures the functional aspects of the tool but also its decorative qualities, making it a fascinating addition to any collection of 20th-century American art. Measuring approximately 12 x 15 inches (30.5 x 38.1 cm), the drawing is a scale representation of the coffee grinder, providing a sense of its true size and proportions. The artist's use of graphite allows for a high level of detail and contrast, creating a striking visual effect that brings the coffee grinder to life. This drawing is an important addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts, and is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States and the beauty that can be found in even the most ordinary objects. Whether appreciated for its historical significance or its aesthetic value, "Coffee Grinder, c. 1936" is a must-see for anyone with an interest in American art or the history of everyday objects. In addition to the coffee grinder, Bader's drawing also includes a rolling pin, adding to the collection of functional tools depicted in the artwork. The combination of these two items provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the daily life and traditions of America during the 1930s and 1940s.
