EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a trivet created by American artist Glenn Wilson in the mid-20th century, around 1942. The trivet, a functional yet decorative object, is depicted in this watercolor and graphite drawing on paperboard. The intricate design showcases the artist's exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. The trivet, a staple in American kitchenware during the 1930s and 1940s, was often used to protect table surfaces from hot pots and pans. However, this particular piece transcends its utilitarian purpose, serving as a work of art in its own right. The trivet's decorative elements include intricate geometric patterns and bold, vibrant colors, which reflect the artistic trends of the time. Wilson's trivet is a testament to the rich heritage of American decorative arts during the 20th century. It is a fascinating example of how functional objects could be elevated to the status of art. This drawing is an important addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. The trivet's timeless design and beautiful execution make it a beloved object, both for its historical significance and its aesthetic appeal. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the artistic and cultural heritage of the United States.
