Quilt Patches, c. 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor and gouache painting on paperboard by American artist Edward White. This exquisite work of art, created during the 1930s, showcases a close-up view of a quilt patch with intricately designed, multi-colored patterns. The patch is a testament to the rich textile heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. Edward White's masterful use of color and pattern in this artwork brings the quilt to life, capturing the essence of the functional yet decorative nature of this traditional American art form. The quilt patch is a vibrant collage of various hues, each one blending seamlessly into the next, creating a visually stunning composition. The painting is an important addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive documentation of American decorative arts, and is now part of the prestigious collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This artwork serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of quilting in America during the 20th century. White's "Quilt Patches, c. 1938" is a beautiful representation of the artistry and craftsmanship that went into creating these functional yet aesthetically pleasing textiles. The painting invites us to appreciate the intricacy and detail of each patch, as well as the larger historical context of quilting in America during the 1930s and 1940s. This artwork is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, textiles, or the history of quilting.
