EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a ceramic crock, titled "Crock, c. 1936," created by the talented American artist Fred Weiss. The crock, a functional yet decorative object, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. The crock, number 2 in the series, is depicted in both front and side views, revealing its elegant double handles and intricate decorative elements. The ceramic piece is adorned with a vibrant, colorful design, featuring geometric shapes and abstract patterns in shades of blue and other hues. The decoration is rendered in watercolor graphite gouache and colored pencil on paper, showcasing Weiss's mastery of various artistic mediums. The crock, with its distinctive two handles, is a quintessential period item that embodies the spirit of the thirties and forties. It is a prime example of the decorative arts movement during this time, which emphasized the importance of functional objects that were also aesthetically pleasing. This beautifully rendered artwork of the crock is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s. The crock can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
