EDITORS COMMENTS
This door knocker design, titled "Door Knocker" by Ben Lassen, dates back to the 1940s, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic flair of the American artist. The intricately detailed image, created using watercolor and graphite on paperboard, offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of decorative arts in the United States during the 20th century. The door knocker features a lively parrot perched atop a metal post, its vibrant plumage and expressive eyes bringing the design to life. The parrot's outstretched wings and beak create a sense of motion and energy, while the textured metalwork adds depth and dimension to the piece. The door, with its simple yet elegant design, provides a perfect backdrop for the ornate door knocker. The 1930s and 1940s were a period of great innovation and creativity in American art, and this door knocker design is a testament to that era's unique blend of functional and decorative art. The door knocker would have once adorned the entrance of a grand home, adding a touch of charm and character to its facade. Today, this piece is a cherished addition to the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it serves as an important reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States. The index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art has recognized the significance of this work, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and art enthusiasts alike.
