EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning two-handled crock, created by American artist Fred Weiss in 1936, is a captivating example of mid-20th century ceramic art. The crock, number 2 in the artist's oeuvre, showcases Weiss' mastery of form and decoration. The front and side views reveal the functional yet elegant design, with two sturdy handles perfectly balanced for easy lifting. Weiss, an influential figure in the decorative arts scene of the 1930s and 1940s, used a combination of watercolor graphite colored pencil and gouache on paper to create this intricate and detailed sketch of the crock. The vibrant blue hue adds a pop of color to the otherwise monochromatic piece, making it a standout addition to any art collection. This two-handled crock is a period item that embodies the heritage art of the United States during the Thirties and Forties. It can be found in the permanent collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world. The Index of American Design has documented this important work, ensuring its place in the annals of American art history. With its timeless design and beautiful decoration, this crock remains a testament to the enduring appeal of functional art.
