EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by American artist Paul Ward, titled "Lamp, c. 1938," showcases the beauty and elegance of a classic table lamp from the 1930s and 1940s. The intricately detailed watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink drawing on paperboard brings to life the circular, double-base lamp with its dual taper stands and decorative cut glass. The lamp base, reminiscent of the Art Deco period, is depicted in rich, vibrant colors, with the wick and wicks subtly hinted at in the center. The circular shape of the base is a common design element of the era, reflecting the functional and modern aesthetic of the time. Paul Ward's masterful use of color and shading adds depth and dimension to this period item, making it a standout piece in any art collection or gallery. The lamp's location in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., as part of the Index of American Design, highlights its significance as a heritage art object and an important contribution to the decorative arts of the 20th century in the United States. The lamp's timeless design and Paul Ward's exquisite rendering make it a cherished piece of American art, evoking memories of a bygone era and a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that defined the 1930s and 1940s. Whether displayed in a home or an art center, this stunning artwork is sure to captivate and inspire all who see it.
