EDITORS COMMENTS
This work of art, titled "Girl's Dress, c. 1941," is a stunning creation by the American artist Winifred Gibbes. The image, rendered in watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paperboard, transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The centerpiece of the composition is a beautiful girl's dress, adorned with a delicate pink rose and bows at the shoulders and waist. The dress is gathered at the waist, with a full skirt that billows out in soft folds, suggesting the playful energy and innocence of infancy. The dress is set against a backdrop of a serene water scene, with ships and boats gently bobbing on the water. Gibbes' attention to detail is evident in the intricate textures and patterns of the fabric, which appear to ripple and flow as if the dress were a real garment. The use of color is masterful, with the pink of the dress contrasting beautifully against the muted blues and greens of the water and sky. This work of art is a testament to the rich heritage of American decorative arts and design, and is a valuable addition to the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, and invites us to reflect on the simple joys of childhood and the beauty of the natural world.
