EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a hand-carved greyhound garden ornament, created by the renowned American artist George Constantine around 1939. The greyhound, a symbol of speed and grace, is depicted in a seated position with its head turned slightly to the side, giving an air of alertness and poise. The intricate carving showcases the artist's exceptional skill, as every muscle, vein, and texture of the dog's coat is meticulously rendered in stone. The greyhound ornament was a popular choice for garden features during the 1930s and 1940s in the United States, reflecting the growing appreciation for art and decorative elements in outdoor spaces. This piece, with its elegant profile and lifelike details, would have made a striking addition to any garden or estate. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the index of American Design, a collection of works produced or obtained in the United States between 1800 and 1980. The greyhound ornament, with its rich heritage and timeless design, is a testament to the artistic talent and creativity that flourished in America during the 20th century. George Constantine's work is held in high regard in the world of art and decorative arts, and this greyhound ornament is a prime example of his mastery of the craft. The use of watercolor and graphite on paper in this photograph provides a vibrant and detailed image of the piece, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and intricacy up close.
