EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Materials from Quilt" by Edward White, dates back to the 1930s, specifically around 1936. The American artist, Edward White, masterfully captured the essence of the decorative arts during this period through this watercolor gouache and pen and ink on paper artwork. The composition showcases an intricate array of materials from a quilt, with multicolored patches skillfully arranged in a functional and artistic manner. The quilt, a cherished item from the 1930s and 1940s in the United States, represents the rich heritage of American textiles and design. The quilt's vibrant colors and patterns are a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of the era. White's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the way he has captured the texture and depth of each patch, making it a visually stunning piece that transports us back in time. The artwork is a part of the Index of American Design, a significant collection of American decorative arts and textiles housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This image provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of American arts and crafts during the 1930s and 1940s. The use of watercolor gouache and pen and ink on paper adds to the artwork's charm, as White expertly balances the delicate nature of watercolor with the bold lines and intricate details of pen and ink. This unique combination results in a visually striking and textured piece that is both a work of art and a historical document. Overall, "Materials from Quilt" by Edward White is a captivating and intriguing piece that invites us to explore the rich history of American textiles and design during the 1930s and 1940s.
