EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Cruet" by American artist John Dana, dates back to the 1930s, around 1936. The artwork is a stunning representation of a blue blown glass cruet, showcasing the elegance and sophistication of the Decorative Arts during the 1930s and 1940s in America. John Dana's masterpiece is a watercolor, graphite, and gouache rendering on paperboard, providing a vibrant and detailed depiction of the functional yet artistic cruet. The intricate design of the glass container, complete with a distinctive lid, is captured with remarkable precision, highlighting the unique shape and color of the glass. The cruet, with its sleek and slender form, is a testament to the artistic and functional prowess of the glass factories of the era. The use of blue glass adds a sense of tranquility and depth to the artwork, making it a standout piece in any collection. This artwork serves as a reminder of the rich heritage of American art and design during the 20th century. It is a period item that transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and elegance of the past. The Cruet is a true embodiment of the Index of American Design, a national initiative to document and preserve the cultural and artistic history of the United States. The artwork is currently housed in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. Whether you're an art aficionado, a historian, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of functional objects, John Dana's Cruet is a must-see addition to your collection or your daydreams.
