EDITORS COMMENTS
Painted Chest, 1935/1942" is a captivating work of art by American artist Chester Faris. This exquisite piece, created during the 1930s or 1940s, is a watercolor gouache and graphite on paper rendering of a decorative wooden chest. The chest, adorned with intricate floral designs, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during this period. The multi-colored chest, with its vibrant pink flowers and red accents, is a visual feast for the eyes. The detailed floral pattern covers the entire surface of the chest, each petal and leaf meticulously rendered with precision and care. The contrast between the flat, graphic quality of the graphite lines and the lush, textured watercolor washes adds depth and dimension to the piece. The chest, with its decorative scrollwork and ornate detailing, is reminiscent of the furniture commonly found in American homes during the 1930s and 1940s. The use of bold colors and floral motifs reflects the trend towards Art Deco and Art Moderne design during this time. This work of art is a significant addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s. It is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. Chester Faris' "Painted Chest, 1935/1942" is a beautiful example of the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 20th century. Its intricate detail, vibrant colors, and timeless design make it a must-see for anyone interested in American art and decorative arts.
