EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Section of Mat" by Mary Berner, dates back to the 1930s and offers a glimpse into the decorative arts of the American 20th century. The intricately detailed drawing, created using colored pencil and graphite on paper, showcases a close-up view of a woven mat, revealing its complex texture and pattern. The mat, with its rich brown color scheme, is a testament to the functional and artistic importance of textiles in American homes during the 1930s and 1940s. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings out the various elements of the mat's design, from the interwoven strands to the subtle variations in color. Mary Berner's "Section of Mat" is an essential addition to any collection of American art, particularly those focusing on the decorative arts. It is a reminder of the beauty and craftsmanship that went into creating functional objects for the home. This artwork is a part of the Index of American Design, a project initiated by the Federal Art Project, which aimed to document and preserve American folk and decorative arts. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., is the current home of this heritage piece, where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the artistic and cultural history of the United States. This section of the mat, with its timeless design and intricate detail, is a testament to the enduring appeal of functional art and the creativity of American artists during the 1930s and 1940s.
