EDITORS COMMENTS
This Silver Tray, created by American artist Irene M. Burge in 1937, showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic vision of the 20th century. The decorative piece, now a cherished artifact, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s. The Silver Tray, adorned with intricate engravings of cherubs and putti, is a stunning example of the Art Deco period's ornamental design. The cherubs, with their angelic faces and playful expressions, add a sense of whimsy and charm to the piece. The engravings are meticulously executed with graphite on paper, which was then transferred to the silver surface, creating a unique and beautiful contrast between the hard metal and delicate lines. The Silver Tray, with its silver finish and decorative borders, is a prime example of the decorative arts that flourished during this era. It is a period item that embodies the concept of homeware as a work of art, rather than just a functional object. The tray, with its location in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is an important addition to the Index of American Design, which documents the artistic production of the United States throughout history. The Silver Tray, with its colorful history and timeless design, continues to captivate viewers and inspire artists, making it a must-see piece in any art gallery or museum. This 1937 creation by Irene M. Burge is not only a beautiful tableware item but also a significant piece of American art history.
