EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wall paper and border design, titled "Wall Paper and Border" by American artist Burton Ewing, dates back to the 1930s. The vibrant and intricate work of art showcases a floral theme, with multi-colored blossoms and leaves adorning the paper. The border, which frames the wall paper, features a stylized floral pattern with a geometric edge. The use of watercolor gouache and graphite on paperboard gives the piece a rich texture and depth. Burton Ewing (1878-1977) was an influential American artist and designer, known for his contributions to the decorative arts during the 20th century. This particular design reflects the artistic trends of the 1930s and 1940s, a time when floral motifs and intricate patterns were popular in home furnishings. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where this piece is housed, is home to a vast collection of American art from the colonial period to the present day. "Wall Paper and Border" is part of the gallery's Index of American Design, which documents the visual arts of the United States from the colonial period to the 1940s. This piece is a testament to the artistic heritage of the United States and the ingenuity of American designers during the 20th century. The floral design is reminiscent of the iconic George Washington flowered wall paper, which was popular during the colonial period and remains a symbol of American decorative arts. Whether used as a decorative accent or a standalone piece, "Wall Paper and Border" by Burton Ewing is a beautiful addition to any art collection.
