EDITORS COMMENTS
This Pa. German Plate, created by American artist Eugene Shellady in 1936, offers a vivid depiction of a Pa. German couple from the 1930s or 1940s. The multi-colored, oil paint on paperboard artwork showcases the rich heritage of Pennsylvania Dutch culture, with the couple dressed in traditional riding habits while horseback riding. The plate's intricate design is reminiscent of the decorative arts of the Pennsylvania Colony, featuring a scene of rolling hills and a quaint, rustic setting. Eugene Shellady's Pa. German Plate is an essential addition to any art collection, showcasing the unique fashion of the era with the woman's multicolored riding dress and the man's crockery-like riding habit. The plate's vibrant colors and detailed decoration reflect the charm and character of the Pennsylvania Dutch people, making it a cherished piece of American history. This artwork was created during the Thirties, a decade marked by the Great Depression, and the Forties, which saw the United States' involvement in World War II. The Pa. German Plate is a testament to the resilience and creativity of the American people during these challenging times. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is home to this remarkable piece of art, which is an index of American Design. The plate's inclusion in the gallery's collection highlights its significance as a period item and a valuable contribution to the decorative arts of the United States.
