EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning coverlet detail, created by American artist Ruth M. Barnes in approximately 1936, showcases the intricate beauty and artistry of traditional American craftsmanship during the 1930s and 1940s. The image, part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., captures a close-up view of a vibrant coverlet, featuring a tricolor pattern of blue, red, and white. The design is a testament to Barnes' mastery of watercolour gouache and graphite on paper, as well as her keen eye for detail. The coverlet, with its geometric pattern and bold colors, is reminiscent of the decorative arts popular during the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The tri-color scheme, evocative of the American flag, adds a sense of patriotism and heritage to the piece. The coverlet's intricate weaving is also highlighted in this detail, adding texture and depth to the artwork. Barnes' coverlet detail is a valuable addition to any art collection, and a reminder of the rich artistic traditions that have shaped American culture. The National Gallery of Art, with its extensive collection of American art, is the perfect location for this important work to be preserved and shared with the public. This detail is not only a beautiful piece of art in its own right, but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the craftsmanship and design sensibilities of a bygone era.
