EDITORS COMMENTS
Frances Cohen's Figurehead, created around 1938, is a stunning example of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. This intricately carved wooden sculpture showcases Cohen's masterful handiwork and her deep connection to nautical traditions. The figurehead depicts a rugged, bearded man with a determined expression, his hand raised in a gesture of command. The figurehead's clothing and accessories, such as a belt, waistcoat, and hat, are meticulously carved, adding to the figure's realistic and authentic appearance. Cohen's Figurehead is a testament to the rich heritage of American art and craftsmanship during the 20th century. The use of color and contrast in the wood carving adds depth and texture to the figurehead, making it a captivating work of art. The figurehead's historical significance is further emphasized by its association with the maritime traditions of the United States, a country with a long and storied history of seafaring. This figurehead was created during the 1930s and 1940s, a period of great social and artistic change in America. The Great Depression and World War II had a profound impact on American society, and many artists turned to traditional crafts and handicrafts as a means of expression and as a way to preserve cultural heritage. Cohen's Figurehead is a prime example of this artistic movement, which sought to celebrate the beauty and craftsmanship of American heritage arts. The Figurehead is now part of the Index of American Design, a collection of American decorative arts and folk art held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It is a valuable addition to the gallery's collection, showcasing the talent and creativity of American artists during a pivotal period in American history.
