EDITORS COMMENTS
Mary Berner's Vessel, 1935/1942 is a captivating work of art that showcases the artist's mastery of form and texture. This print, created using graphite and colored pencil on paper, is an impression of a ceramic vessel from the 1930s or 1940s. The container, with its intricate pattern and geometric design, is a testament to the functional and decorative aspects of American ceramics during this period. Berner's Vessel is a significant piece in the context of 20th century American art. It is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts and crafts, which was initiated by the Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in the 1930s. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. holds this print in its collection, making it an important part of the country's artistic heritage. The vessel's form is both simple and elegant, with clean lines and a subtle sense of depth. The patterned surface, with its intricate geometric design, adds visual interest and texture. The monochromatic palette, consisting of various shades of gray, enhances the sense of depth and adds to the timeless quality of the piece. Despite the passage of time, Berner's Vessel remains a relevant and inspiring work of art. Its functional and decorative aspects continue to resonate with contemporary audiences, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery display. This print is not only a beautiful work of art in its own right, but also a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the rich artistic traditions of America during the 1930s and 1940s.
