EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Window Grille Standards," was created by the talented American artist Austin L. Davison in 1937. The black and white graphite drawing on paperboard offers a glimpse into the intricate world of ironwork design that was popular during the 1930s in the United States. The focus of the artwork is a set of window grille standards, which were once common features of residential and commercial buildings in America during this period. The meticulous detail and precision with which Davison has rendered the ornate ironwork are truly remarkable. Each curve, line, and intersection is rendered with care and intent, showcasing the artist's mastery of the medium. The window grilles, with their intricate patterns and geometric shapes, served both functional and decorative purposes. They provided security and privacy while also adding to the aesthetic appeal of the buildings they adorned. The use of iron as the primary material for these grilles was a testament to the industrial prowess of the United States during the 20th century. This artwork is an important reminder of the rich cultural heritage of America during the 1930s. It is a period item that offers insights into the design sensibilities and artistic trends of the time. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., which houses this artwork in its collection, is a testament to the enduring value of such works as an index of American design. In summary, Austin L. Davison's "Window Grille Standards" is a beautiful and intricately detailed graphite drawing that showcases the artistry and craftsmanship of American ironwork during the 1930s. It is a valuable addition to any art collection and a testament to the artistic and cultural heritage of the United States.
