EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Crewel Purse, created by American artist Eleanor Alexander in approximately 1939, showcases the intricate beauty and artistry of needlework during the 1930s and 1940s. The multi-colored, floral design adorning the purse is a testament to Alexander's mastery of the crewel technique, which involves using wool threads on linen or other fabric. The purse, with its functional yet elegant design, is a prime example of the decorative arts movement that flourished during this period. The blue and pink flowers, meticulously rendered in watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paper, add a touch of whimsy and charm to the piece. The purse's indexical relationship to the fashion of the time is evident in its shape and size, making it a valuable addition to any collection of 20th-century American accessories. This beautiful object, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and the importance of preserving and celebrating the work of artists like Eleanor Alexander. The purse's timeless design and exquisite craftsmanship continue to inspire and delight, making it a cherished item for both art and fashion enthusiasts alike.
