EDITORS COMMENTS
Francis Bruner's Jar, 1935/1942, is a stunning example of American ceramic art from the 1930s and 1940s. This exquisite watercolor, graphite, and gouache rendering on paperboard by Bruner captures the essence of a simple yet elegant ceramic jar. The jar's form is functional, yet its design is far from ordinary. The jar's green color, reminiscent of fresh growth and new beginnings, adds to its allure. Bruner's Jar is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The 1930s and 1940s were a period of great innovation and experimentation in American art, particularly in the decorative arts. Bruner's work reflects the influence of the Arts and Crafts movement, which emphasized the importance of functional art and the use of natural materials. This jar, with its organic shape and earthy color, would have been right at home in any American household during the 1930s and 1940s. Its timeless design continues to captivate viewers today, making it an important addition to any art collection or gallery. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is fortunate to have Bruner's Jar as part of its Index of American Design. This extensive collection of American decorative arts, which spans from the late 16th century to the present day, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States. Bruner's Jar, with its beautiful green hue and simple yet elegant design, is a standout piece in this esteemed collection.
