EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative oil lamp design by American artist Ralph Atkinson, created around 1936, transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The intricately detailed watercolor, graphite, and gouache rendering on paper showcases Atkinson's mastery of the decorative arts, particularly in the realm of glassware and glassworks. The oil lamp, with its pedestal base and footed design, is a period item that embodies the charm and elegance of a bygone era. The lamp's colorful glass shade, illuminated by the warm glow of an oil flame, casts a soft, inviting light, making it a beautiful addition to any home or gallery setting. Atkinson's Oil Lamp is a testament to the rich heritage of American art during the 20th century. It is a fascinating piece that captures the essence of the 1930s and 1940s, a time when traditional craftsmanship and design met modern innovation. This artwork is an important contribution to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive archive of American decorative arts, and is now part of the permanent collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The Oil Lamp is not only a work of art but also a piece of history, providing a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that continues to inspire us today.
