EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Silver Strainer" by Kalamian Walton, dates back to the 1930s and offers a glimpse into the decorative arts scene of the 20th century in America. The intricately engraved graphite drawing on paper showcases a silver strainer, a utensil commonly used during the 1930s and 1940s for straining liquids during food preparation. The silverware piece, with its elegant and intricate design, is brought to life through Walton's skillful use of graphite, adding an artistic touch to an otherwise functional object. The Silver Strainer is a period item that embodies the heritage art of the time, reflecting the rich cultural history of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. The use of silver as a primary material in tableware during this era is evident, as seen in the detailed engraving of the utensil's intricate design. This artwork is a testament to the importance of decorative arts during this time, as people placed great value on the aesthetic appeal of their household items. The Silver Strainer, with its beautiful engraving, would have been a prized possession in any American home during the 1930s and 1940s. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is home to this remarkable piece, which is a part of the Index of American Design. The Index of American Design is a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s, and the Silver Strainer by Kalamian Walton is a significant addition to this esteemed collection.
