EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a Whale Oil Lamp, created by Armenian American artist Arsen Maralian in the 1930s. The 20th-century artifact is a testament to the rich cultural and design heritage of the United States during this period. The lamp, now a prized item in art galleries and museums, embodies the functional art movement of the time. Maralian's Whale Oil Lamp, dating back to the 1930s, stands as a unique piece of American history. Its graphite on paper design, featuring an intricate whale and waves, adds an artistic touch to the traditional oil lamp. The lamp base, made of metal, is a sleek and modern contrast to the organic whale design. The Whale Oil Lamp, a period item from the Thirties, is a striking representation of the Index of American Design. It showcases the country's artistic influences, drawing from both the natural world and the innovative design trends of the era. The lamp's location in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., further solidifies its importance in American art history. As a functional art piece, the Whale Oil Lamp by Arsen Maralian serves both as a decorative item and a source of light. Its colorful design adds warmth and character to any home or gallery setting. This 1936 creation continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the rich artistic legacy of the United States.
