EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Eagle Sternpiece, c. 1940 - A Symbol of American Patriotism and Artistic Excellence". This print showcases the remarkable "Eagle Sternpiece" created by Alfred H. Smith in the mid-20th century. Crafted with watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paperboard, this functional work of art embodies both the spirit of American nationalism and the artist's exceptional talent. The majestic eagle, a bird of prey revered for its strength and grace, takes center stage in this piece. With its wings outstretched against a backdrop of stars and stripes, it proudly represents the United States' enduring values of freedom and unity. The golden hue adds an air of regality to this symbolically significant creature. Smith's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of his design. The wooden banner held firmly by the eagle bears intricate carvings that pay homage to America's rich heritage. This period item exemplifies decorative arts from the 1930s-1940s era while seamlessly blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary artistic sensibilities. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art as part of their esteemed collection, this artwork serves as an index for American design during its time. It stands as a testament to Smith's profound contribution to American art history. With each glance at this extraordinary creation, viewers are transported back in time, reminded not only of our country's proud past but also inspired by its enduring beauty. "
