EDITORS COMMENTS
Giacinto Capelli's Silver Bowl, created in 1936, is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 1930s. This graphite on paperboard drawing showcases an intricately designed silver bowl, adorned with horses and riders engaged in equestrian activities. The horses, depicted with great attention to detail, exhibit the strength and grace of the animals, while the riders add an element of dynamism and action to the piece. Capelli's Silver Bowl is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The bowl, with its elaborate design, would have been a prized possession in any American home during the Thirties. The Silver Bowl's design is reminiscent of the Index of American Design, a project initiated by the Federal Art Project, which aimed to document and promote American decorative arts. The Silver Bowl's silver finish adds a touch of elegance and luxury, making it a desirable addition to any table setting or art collection. The horses and riders, depicted in action, add a sense of movement and energy to the piece, making it a unique and captivating work of art. The Silver Bowl is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it is admired by visitors from around the world. This period item is a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural history of the United States during the 1930s, and a testament to the enduring appeal of equestrian themes in American art.
