EDITORS COMMENTS
Newel Figure, c. 1939 by Milton Grubstein This work of art, titled "Newel Figure," was created by American artist Milton Grubstein in the year 1939. The image, which is a graphite drawing on paper, showcases a fantastical newel post adorned with a mythical beast. The figure is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 1930s. Grubstein's intricate and detailed drawing transports us to a world of mythology and folklore. The newel post, a common architectural feature found in homes, is transformed into a decorative art piece, showcasing a dragon-like creature with outstretched wings and sharp claws. The dragon, a mythical beast often associated with power, strength, and good fortune, adds an element of grandeur and mystery to the piece. The "Newel Figure" is a significant addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts and fine arts produced between 1600 and 1875. Grubstein's work, however, was created during the 20th century, making it a valuable addition to the collection. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is the proud owner of this masterpiece. The Gallery, which is a renowned cultural institution in the United States, houses a vast collection of art from various periods and genres. The acquisition of "Newel Figure" adds to the Gallery's rich and diverse collection, showcasing the artistic talent and creativity of American artists during the 1930s. This period item, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and the importance of preserving and celebrating the works of American artists. The "Newel Figure" is not only a decorative art piece but also a work of art that tells a story, transports us to another world, and adds beauty and character to any space it occupies.
