Pa. German Ceramic Horse, c. 1938 - A Delicate Blend of Tradition and Artistry
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable piece of Pa. German heritage art - the Pa. German Ceramic Horse, created by the talented Carl Strehlau in 1938. With its exquisite design and meticulous craftsmanship, this ceramic masterpiece represents a harmonious fusion of American culture and German influence. The horse stands as a symbol of strength, grace, and resilience within both Pennsylvania Dutch and Pennsylvania German communities. Its terracotta body is adorned with vibrant colors that reflect the rich palette of the era's decorative arts. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this item from the Index of American Design captures an important period in American history - the 1930s and 1940s. It serves as a testament to Strehlau's artistic prowess while also honoring his cultural roots. Through watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paper techniques, Strehlau brings this majestic creature to life with intricate details that highlight every curve and contour. The delicate brushstrokes reveal his deep appreciation for horses as pack animals during colonial times in Pennsylvania. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork today, we are transported back to a bygone era where tradition met innovation through skilled hands like those of Carl Strehlau. This ceramic horse not only preserves our collective heritage but also reminds us of the enduring power that art holds to transcend time and connect us across generations.
