EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Pa. German Plate, created by artist Eugene Shellady in 1938, showcases the rich cultural heritage of Pennsylvania Dutch decorative arts. The plate, which measures approximately 12 inches in diameter, is a beautiful example of the intricate floral designs and initials that were popular during the 1930s and 1940s in the Pennsylvania German community. The plate is decorated with vibrant red and yellow floral patterns, reminiscent of the traditional Pennsylvania Dutch quilts and folk art. The center of the plate features the initials "ES" in elegant script, surrounded by a wreath of intricately detailed flowers and leaves. The plate's edges are adorned with a decorative border, adding to its overall charm and character. Eugene Shellady was a prominent artist in the Pa. German community, known for his skill in creating ceramic and decorative arts. This plate, which is oil paint on paperboard, is a testament to his talent and the enduring appeal of Pennsylvania German art. The plate is a period item from the 20th century, specifically the 1930s and 1940s, and is a valuable addition to any collection of American art or decorative arts. This plate is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., as part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts and designs from the colonial period to the 1940s. The National Gallery of Art is a renowned art institution that showcases a diverse range of art from around the world, making it an ideal location for this beautiful and historically significant piece.
