EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating work of art by American artist Mary Berner, showcasing the intricate beauty and cultural significance of Native American footwear. This exquisite piece, created using colored pencil and graphite on paper, transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s, a period when functional and decorative arts intertwined in a vibrant tapestry of American heritage. Mary Berner masterfully captures the essence of a traditional moccasin, a staple of Native American apparel for centuries. The moccasin in this artwork is not just a simple foot covering, but a symbol of the rich history and traditions of indigenous peoples. The multi-colored design, reminiscent of the intricate embroidery found on Penobscot and other tribal garments, adds a layer of depth and meaning to the piece. The moccasin is not the only object of interest in this artwork. A small, embroidered purse sits beside it, adding a touch of elegance and completeness to the scene. The overall composition, with its attention to detail and authenticity, makes "Moccasin, 1935" a must-see piece for anyone interested in the history of American fashion, decorative arts, or the cultural heritage of Native American tribes. This artwork is part of the Index of American Design, a significant collection held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse artistic traditions that have shaped the United States throughout its history. Whether you're an art enthusiast, a historian, or simply someone with an appreciation for the beauty and richness of American culture, "Moccasin, 1935" is a must-see piece that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
