Woman's Shoe, c. 1937
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Bessie Forman is a captivating snapshot of American fashion history. This exquisite watercolor graphite and gouache on paperboard print showcases the artistry and attention to detail that defined women's footwear in the 1930s. Forman, a talented artist of her time, beautifully captures the essence of this era with her delicate brushstrokes and vibrant use of color. The shoe itself is an elegant creation, featuring intricate laces that gracefully wrap around the foot. Its side lace design adds a touch of sophistication to this already stylish piece. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to a time when fashion was not just about functionality but also about expressing one's individuality and embracing new trends. The shoe represents more than just an accessory; it embodies the spirit and culture of 1930s America. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "Woman's Shoe" stands as a testament to Bessie Forman's talent as well as its significance within American heritage art. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects can be transformed into works of art through skilled craftsmanship and artistic vision. This print invites us to appreciate both the beauty found in our material possessions and their ability to reflect our cultural identity throughout history. It reminds us that fashion is not merely superficial but rather an integral part of our collective narrative, shaping how we present ourselves to the world while simultaneously reflecting societal values and ideals.
