EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor painting by American artist Edith Towner, titled "Pantalette, c. 1937," showcases an exquisite example of women's undergarment fashion from the 1930s. The pantalette, a type of undergarment that resembles a cross between bloomers and a petticoat, was a popular choice for women during this era. The pantalette in this artwork is depicted in pristine white, adding to its ethereal and timeless quality. The delicate fabric, with its intricate floral patterns and subtle textures, is brought to life through Towner's expert use of color and brushwork. The pantalette is suspended in mid-air, as if floating on a gentle breeze, creating an otherworldly atmosphere that transports us back to a bygone era. The painting is a testament to Towner's exceptional talent as a decorative artist, her ability to capture the essence of a period item with such precision and grace. The pantalette, with its charming simplicity and elegant design, is a fascinating glimpse into the fashion trends of the 1930s and 1940s. This artwork is part of the Index of American Design, a significant collection of American decorative arts, housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The collection, which includes over 18,000 objects, provides a rich and diverse representation of American art and culture from the colonial period to the present day. Towner's "Pantalette, c. 1937" is a valuable addition to this important collection, offering a unique perspective on American fashion history.
