EDITORS COMMENTS
This side panel of a fire engine, created by Elmer G. Anderson in approximately 1938, showcases the intricate craftsmanship and artistic detail of the bygone era. The panel, which measures approximately 25 x 30 inches, is a testament to the rich heritage of American art during the 1930s and 1940s. Anderson's masterpiece, rendered in wood carving, watercolor, graphite, and coloured pencil on paperboard, depicts a scene of female firefighters in action. The women, dressed in their uniforms and equipped with hoses, are shown in the process of extinguishing a fire. The side panel is adorned with various firefighting tools, including a hose holder, adding to the authenticity and realism of the artwork. The side panel's intricate design and vibrant colors evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting the viewer back in time to an era of courage and community spirit. The use of wood carving adds a tactile and textured quality to the artwork, making it a true standout piece in any art collection or gallery. Elmer G. Anderson's Side Panel of a Fire Engine is an important addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts and crafts from the colonial period to the 1940s, housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This artwork is a valuable representation of the artistic and cultural history of the United States during the 20th century and is sure to inspire awe and admiration in all who view it.
