EDITORS COMMENTS
Anne Nemtzoff's Jug, created around 1940, is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. This ceramic jug, with its distinctive brown body and blue slip decoration, showcases the artist's exceptional skill in slip painting and her appreciation for the floral motifs that were popular during this period. Nemtzoff's Jug is a functional object, designed for practical use in the kitchen or dining room. Yet, its aesthetic value far surpasses its utility. The artist's intricate watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite design on paperboard serves as a preliminary sketch for the final ceramic piece. The floral motifs, which adorn the jug's surface, are reminiscent of the natural beauty of the American countryside and reflect the artist's connection to her environment. The Jug is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts and crafts, compiled by the Federal Arts Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA) between 1935 and 1942. This important collection, which includes over 22,000 objects, documents the country's artistic heritage and provides valuable insights into the cultural and historical context of the time. Today, Nemtzoff's Jug can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors. The jug's enduring appeal lies in its ability to bridge the gap between the functional and the decorative, the past and the present, and the simplicity of rural life and the complexity of artistic expression.
