EDITORS COMMENTS
This Pa. German Birth Certificate print, created by artist Elmer G. Anderson in 1937, showcases a vibrant and intricately detailed depiction of a historical document from the Pennsylvania Dutch community. The 20th century artwork transports us back to the 1930s and 1940s in America, with its multi-colored, watercolour coloured pencil and graphite on paperboard composition. The certificate bears the name of a newborn baby boy, born in the Pennsylvania Colony, a region once known as the Pennsylvania Dutch Country. The design is inspired by the rich heritage of the Pennsylvania German community, which has its roots in Germany. The document's authentic appearance is brought to life through Anderson's meticulous attention to detail, from the embossed seal and intricate border to the carefully rendered text. This piece is an essential addition to any art collection focusing on American history, folk art, or the Pennsylvania Dutch tradition. As part of the Index of American Design, it holds significant cultural value and is a testament to the diverse artistic expressions that have shaped our nation's heritage. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and other esteemed galleries and museums have recognized the importance of this work, making it an invaluable piece for both personal and public art collections. The Pa. German Birth Certificate print by Elmer G. Anderson is a stunning and unique representation of a bygone era, inviting us to explore the history and traditions of the Pennsylvania Dutch community and the United States as a whole.
