EDITORS COMMENTS
Petroglyphs - Human Figures," a captivating lithograph on paper created by Lala Eve Rivol in the mid-20th century, showcases a fascinating fusion of ancient and modern art. This intriguing piece, dated between 1935 and 1942, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Americas and the artistic vision of its creator. Rivol, an American artist, was deeply inspired by the petroglyphs, or rock art, left behind by the indigenous peoples of the United States. These ancient markings, often depicting human figures and other symbols, have been discovered across the country, providing valuable insights into the lives and beliefs of early civilizations. Rivol's interpretation of these ancient human figures is a vibrant and multi-colored representation, capturing the essence of both the past and the present. The lithograph is a stunning example of the Index of American Design, a New Deal initiative aimed at documenting and preserving American folk art and traditional crafts. The artwork reflects the political climate of the 1930s and 1940s, a time when there was renewed interest in American heritage and the arts. The Works Progress Administration (WPA) and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, played a significant role in promoting and preserving American art during this period. The human figures in Rivol's Petroglyphs - Human Figures are depicted in various poses and sizes, showcasing the diversity and complexity of the human form. The use of bold colors and dynamic designs adds a contemporary touch to the ancient subject matter, making this piece a truly unique and captivating work of art. Petroglyphs - Human Figures is not only a beautiful and intriguing artwork but also a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists in the United States and the importance of preserving and celebrating it. This piece is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, history, or the human figure.
