Parasol, 1937
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating work of art by American artist George Roehl, showcasing his exceptional skill in wood carving. This exquisite piece, created during the 1930s, is a testament to the rich heritage of decorative arts in the United States. The parasol, an essential accessory for sun protection during the 1930s and 1940s, is beautifully rendered in this hand-carved wooden design. The intricate detail and precise craftsmanship are evident in the delicate floral patterns and graceful curves that adorn the parasol's handle. The black color of the parasol contrasts elegantly with the intricate carving, adding depth and dimension to the piece. Roehl's use of watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paper for the parasol's decorative design further enhances its visual appeal. The combination of these mediums with the wood carving creates a unique and visually striking contrast. This functional yet decorative object is a reflection of the period's fashion trends and the importance placed on accessories in completing an outfit. The parasol's intricate design and attention to detail make it a standout piece in any art collection or gallery. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this work in its impressive collection, showcasing the Index of American Design. Roehl's "Parasol, 1937" is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and the importance of preserving and celebrating the works of talented artists like George Roehl. Whether admired for its historical significance, artistic merit, or simply for its beauty, "Parasol, 1937" is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, decorative arts, or the history of fashion.
