EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Butter Crock, created in 1936 by the talented artist Jerome Hoxie. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this ceramic masterpiece. The double-handled crock, with its smooth white surface, stands as a testament to American artistry and heritage during the 1930s. Its elegant shape and delicate pencil drawings evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times in rural America. Hoxie's use of watercolor gouache graphite and heightening on paper brings out the subtle colors that adorn this container. The soft hues add depth and dimension to the artwork, making it truly come alive. As we gaze at this image, we can almost imagine ourselves transported back in time to a country kitchen filled with delicious aromas. This butter crock symbolizes not only functionality but also serves as an artistic representation of our connection to food and tradition. Displayed proudly in an art gallery or museum like the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this piece is part of the Index of American Design collection—a treasure trove showcasing iconic works from throughout United States history. Jerome Hoxie's Butter Crock invites us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance—a timeless reminder that even everyday objects can be elevated into works of art through skilled hands.
