EDITORS COMMENTS
John Dana's Decanter, created in the late 1930s, is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 20th century. This watercolor and graphite drawing on paperboard showcases Dana's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of functional art. The decanter, with its elongated shape and intricate design, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, reminiscent of the Roaring Twenties and the opulence of the 1940s. The decanter, a period item from the Thirties and Forties, is depicted against a plain background, allowing the intricate details of its design to take center stage. The use of color and contrast in the drawing adds depth and dimension, making it a captivating piece of art in its own right. John Dana's Decanter is a testament to the rich heritage of American art and design. It is a reminder of a bygone era when functional objects were not only utilitarian but also works of art. This piece, with its timeless appeal, would be a valuable addition to any art center, art gallery, or museum's collection. The decanter, with its brandy-filled contents, evokes images of grand dinner parties and cozy evenings by the fire. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures in life and the importance of beauty in everyday objects. This drawing, a masterpiece by John Dana, is a reminder of the enduring allure of glassware and the role it plays in our lives. The Decanter by John Dana is a significant addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the mid-1940s. This drawing is a testament to Dana's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the essence of American culture during the 1930s and 1940s.
