Pannier Pockets, c. 1937
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of American folk art from the mid-20th century. Created by Frank McEntee, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent in combining watercolor gouache and graphite on paperboard to bring forth a visually striking piece. The vibrant blue hues dominate the composition, drawing our attention to the intricately designed panniers or pockets that adorn the dress depicted. These panniers were popular during the 1930s and 1940s as an extravagant fashion statement, adding volume and drama to women's clothing of that era. McEntee's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pencil and brush. The delicate folds of fabric are expertly rendered, giving life and movement to the dress. This artwork serves as a testament to McEntee's skillful technique and artistic vision. As we delve into this piece further, we can appreciate how it reflects not only an artistic expression but also a glimpse into American culture at that time. It serves as a reminder of the country's rich heritage in artistry and design. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "Pannier Pockets" stands as part of their esteemed collection known as Index of American Design. Through its presence within this renowned institution, McEntee's work continues to inspire generations with its timeless beauty and historical significance.
