Loose Jawed Bit, c. 1936 - A Glimpse into Equestrian Craftsmanship in 20th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail of a unique equestrian artifact from the 1930s. Created by Eva Fox, an American artist known for her mastery of watercolor pen and ink techniques, this artwork is a testament to her talent and passion for capturing historical objects. The Loose Jawed Bit, with its intricate metalwork and decorative design, transports us back to a bygone era when horse riding was not only a means of transportation but also an art form. This period item reflects the elegance and sophistication associated with horseback riding during that time. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this piece is part of the Index of American Design collection which aims to preserve and celebrate American heritage art. The vibrant colors used by Fox bring life to this otherwise utilitarian object, highlighting its significance as both functional equipment for riders and an artistic creation. As we admire this artwork, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within our country's cultural fabric. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects can hold immense value when viewed through an artistic lens. Eva Fox's Loose Jawed Bit invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its role in shaping America's equestrian traditions during the early decades of the 20th century.
