EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a pair of elegant home accessories designed by American artist Elizabeth Curtis in the 1930s and 1940s: a Pole Screen and a Candlestand. The Pole Screen, depicted here as a scale drawing in pen and ink and graphite on paper, is a decorative room divider that adds a touch of sophistication and privacy to any space. Its intricate design features repeating geometric patterns and delicate floral motifs, reflecting the Art Deco aesthetic popular during the 1930s. The accompanying Candlestand, also shown as a scale drawing, is a graceful and functional piece of furniture that adds both style and practicality to a room. Its simple yet elegant design includes three tapered legs that converge at the base, supporting a circular tabletop with a single candlestick in the center. The screen and candlestand are not only beautiful works of art in their own right but also exemplify the rich cultural heritage of American design during the 20th century. Measuring approximately 12 inches by 9 inches, this image is a testament to the enduring appeal of Curtis's designs, which continue to inspire and influence contemporary home decor. The Pole Screen and Candlestand are currently housed in the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where they serve as important reminders of the artistic achievements of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s.
