EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor and graphite on paper artwork titled "Carpet Stretcher" by American artist Howard Lumbard (1908-1991) showcases the intricacies of a functional device used in the decorative arts industry during the 1930s and 1940s. The image, created between 1935 and 1942, is a testament to Lumbard's exceptional drafting skills and his ability to bring everyday objects to life with artful detail. The Carpet Stretcher, a wooden mechanism, is depicted in the foreground of the composition, its gears and levers meticulously rendered in graphite, while the surrounding area is filled with vibrant watercolor hues. The wooden stretcher, with its intricate design, appears poised to stretch a carpet, ready to restore its original shape and texture. The background of the artwork is left blank, drawing the viewer's focus to the intricacies of the device itself. This period piece, which is now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., USA, is a prime example of the functional art that emerged during the 1930s and 1940s. The Carpet Stretcher is not only an essential tool for the soft furnishing industry but also an aesthetically pleasing object that embodies the spirit of American ingenuity and design. Lumbard's artwork serves as a reminder of the beauty and artistry that can be found in even the most utilitarian of objects.
