Petroglyph - Human Figures, 1935/1942
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph on paper by the American artist Lala Eve Rivol. Created during the 1930s or 1940s, this vibrant and intriguing artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Americas. Rivol masterfully depicts a series of human figures in this multi-colored, multicolored composition, drawing inspiration from ancient petroglyphs, or rock art, found throughout the United States and other parts of the world. The figures are rendered in bold, expressive lines, evoking a sense of movement and energy that speaks to the enduring spirit of the human experience. The artwork is a significant contribution to the Index of American Design, a project initiated by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and the Federal Art Project, which aimed to document and preserve American art and cultural heritage. Rivol's "Petroglyph - Human Figures" is a prime example of the political and cultural significance of this initiative during the New Deal era. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this important work in its collection, showcasing the artistic talent and cultural diversity of the United States during the 20th century. The artwork's rich colors and dynamic composition make it a standout piece, inviting viewers to contemplate the connections between the past and the present, as well as the shared human experience. As we gaze upon "Petroglyph - Human Figures," we are reminded of the ancient rock art left behind by our Homo sapien ancestors and the enduring legacy of human creativity and expression. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating our cultural heritage, both locally and globally.
