EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a beautiful and intricately carved wooden sofa, created by American artist Florence Choate in the 1930s. The sofa, titled "Sofa, c. 1936," is a testament to Choate's exceptional skill in the decorative arts. The piece exudes an air of elegance and sophistication, with its graceful curves and intricate carvings that evoke the Art Deco style of the era. The sofa's green color, achieved through watercolor gouache, colored pencil, and graphite on paperboard, adds a fresh and vibrant touch to the piece. The wooden frame, expertly crafted through wood carving and woodworking techniques, showcases Choate's mastery of the medium. The sofa's seat and back are adorned with delicate floral and geometric patterns, adding a decorative element that complements the overall design. This piece, now a cherished item of heritage art, was once a popular decorative element in American homes during the 1930s and 1940s. It is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it is on display for visitors to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of this exceptional work of art. Florence Choate's "Sofa, c. 1936" is a prime example of the artistic talent and creativity that flourished in America during the 20th century. Its timeless design and elegant craftsmanship continue to inspire and captivate viewers, making it an important addition to any art collection or gallery.
