EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite silver pitcher, created by American artist David P. Willoughby in the late 1930s, is a stunning example of functional art from the Decade of Depression and the dawn of World War II. The pitcher, titled "Silver Pitcher, c. 1937," is a unique blend of color and form, with its sleek, ornamental design showcasing the artist's mastery of watercolor and graphite on paper. The pitcher's handle, delicately curved and adorned with intricate patterns, contrasts beautifully with its smooth, silver body. The pitcher's shape is both functional and conceptual, a testament to Willoughby's ability to create art that not only serves a purpose but also adds aesthetic value. This piece is an important addition to any collection of American art from the 20th century. It reflects the heritage and cultural significance of the time, a period marked by economic hardship and artistic innovation. The pitcher's place in the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., further solidifies its importance as a significant piece of American art history. The silver pitcher, with its elegant curves and intricate handle, is a reminder of the beauty and creativity that can emerge even in the most challenging of times. Its presence on the table adds a touch of sophistication and charm, making it a treasured item for any art lover or collector.
