EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor and graphite on paperboard artwork, titled "Shaker Cupboard, c. 1938," is a captivating representation of a functional Shaker cupboard from the 1930s or 1940s, created by the renowned American artist George V. Vezolles. The cupboard, with its simple yet elegant design, is depicted in a warm, inviting brown hue that brings to mind the cozy interiors of a rural American home. The Shaker community, known for their minimalist and practical approach to design, is celebrated in this artwork through the meticulously rendered details of the cupboard's wooden surface, which showcases the beautiful grain of the wood and the simple, clean lines of the design. The cupboard, which could have served as a clothes press or linen press, is a testament to the Shaker belief in the harmony between form and function. This artwork is an important addition to the decorative arts collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a valuable contribution to the Index of American Design. The Index of American Design is a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s, and this artwork by Vezolles is a significant representation of the functional, brown furniture that was popular in American homes during the 1930s and 1940s. George V. Vezolles (1892-1977) was an accomplished American artist who specialized in watercolors and graphite drawings of Americana, including landscapes, still lifes, and domestic interiors. His artwork captures the essence of American heritage and the beauty of everyday objects, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery.
