Hitching Post, c. 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Pearl Torell captures the essence of rural America in the 1930s. This print showcases a beautifully crafted wrought iron hitching post against a backdrop of rolling hills and open fields. The artist's use of watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink brings out the intricate details of this period item. The hitching post stands tall and sturdy, symbolizing an era when horses were still a common mode of transportation. Its elegant design reflects both functionality and artistic craftsmanship, showcasing the fusion between decorative arts and practicality that was prevalent during this time. Torell's choice to depict the hitching post in shades of grey adds depth to the image while maintaining its vintage charm. The monochromatic color palette allows viewers to focus on the delicate lines and curves that make up this historical artifact. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to an era where life moved at a slower pace - where people relied on horse-drawn carriages for their daily travels. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and how far we have come since then. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "Hitching Post" is not just a simple depiction but also an important piece from American history that celebrates both artistry and functionality intertwined within our cultural fabric.
