EDITORS COMMENTS
Petroglyph Design, 1935/1942" is a stunning lithograph on paper created by the American artist Lala Eve Rivol. This vibrant and multicolored artwork, which measures approximately 21.6 x 15.2 centimeters, showcases Rivol's unique interpretation of petroglyphs, the ancient rock carvings created by various indigenous cultures around the world. Rivol, born in 1903, was an influential figure in the American art scene during the 1930s and 1940s. Her work was featured in the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American-made decorative arts and folk art compiled during the 1930s and 1940s as part of the New Deal's Works Progress Administration (WPA) and Federal Art Project. Petroglyph Design reflects the artist's deep appreciation for the rich cultural heritage of Native American rock art. The design features abstracted representations of animals, geometric shapes, and other symbols, all rendered in bold, vivid colors. The composition is dynamic and engaging, with intricate patterns that draw the viewer's eye across the surface of the artwork. The artwork's title, "Petroglyph Design, 1935/1942," suggests that Rivol may have created this piece as part of a larger body of work inspired by her study of petroglyphs. The earlier date, 1935, could refer to the initial inspiration or research for the project, while the later date, 1942, may indicate when the artwork was actually completed. Today, "Petroglyph Design, 1935/1942" is a cherished addition to the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it serves as a testament to Rivol's artistic vision and her commitment to preserving and celebrating the diverse artistic traditions of the United States.
