EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning watercolor and graphite on paperboard artwork, titled "Woman's Dress, 1935/1942," is a captivating representation of women's fashion during the transitional period between the 1930s and 1940s in America. Created by the talented Gerald Scalise, this piece showcases a woman's elegant and functional gown. The dress is depicted in a multi-colored, checked pattern, a popular trend during the 1930s, which seamlessly blends into the fashionable and practical design of the 1940s. The dress features a gathered skirt, a high waistline, and a fitted bodice, all of which were characteristic of the era. The rich green color of the dress adds a touch of freshness and vibrancy to the artwork, making it a standout piece. The intricate details of the pattern are beautifully rendered, with each check meticulously drawn and painted. The use of both watercolor and graphite adds depth and texture to the artwork, making it a true masterpiece of decorative arts. This artwork is a testament to the evolution of women's fashion during the 20th century, and a reminder of the importance of preserving our fashion history. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of American fashion, and a beautiful addition to any art collection. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this piece as part of its Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts and folk art from the Colonial period to the 1940s.
