EDITORS COMMENTS
This work of art, titled "Iron Sole" by Rocco Navigato, dates back to the 1940s and offers a unique glimpse into American fashion and design of the era. Navigato, an accomplished artist, skillfully combined watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paperboard to create this intricate and detailed masterpiece. The Iron Sole is a stunning representation of a carriage boot, a popular footwear trend during the 1930s and 1940s. The boot is depicted in exquisite detail, with each nail, rivet, and crease rendered with precision and care. The ironwork design on the boot's sole is particularly noteworthy, adding an industrial and functional element to the otherwise elegant and decorative piece. The Iron Sole is a testament to the rich heritage of American art and design during the 20th century. It is a period item that transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies and nuances of a bygone era. The use of watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paperboard adds to the artwork's textured and tactile quality, making it a true work of art that is as visually appealing as it is historically significant. This artwork is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The Iron Sole is a valuable addition to the gallery's collection, offering a unique perspective on American fashion and design during the 1930s and 1940s. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage and the role that art plays in documenting and celebrating our history.
