EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and intricately designed coverlet, created by Howard H. Sherman in the 1930s or 1940s, is a true testament to American craftsmanship and artistic talent. The Coverlet showcases a stunning combination of colors, patterns, and motifs that reflect the rich heritage art of the United States. Handwoven with meticulous attention to detail, this functional piece of decorative arts features an array of birds gracefully perched on branches amidst a backdrop of floral designs. The artist's skillful use of watercolor and graphite on paper brings out the vividness and depth in each element. The Coverlet represents both the ingenuity and creativity prevalent during this period in America's history. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of a time when handcrafted items were cherished for their beauty and functionality. Currently housed at the National Gallery of Art's Index of American Design collection, this coverlet stands as an important cultural artifact from the mid-20th century. Its presence within this esteemed gallery ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate. As we admire Sherman's workmanship, we are transported back to an era where weaving techniques such as warp and weft were employed to create intricate patterns like those found in this remarkable piece. This coverlet not only reflects our country's artistic legacy but also exemplifies how art can transcend time through its enduring beauty.
