EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Bandbox" by Lina Manetto, showcases the exquisite decorative arts of the 1930s and 1940s in America. Created during the transitional period between the two decades, this masterpiece is a vibrant fusion of watercolor, graphite, and gold ink on paperboard. The circular design, reminiscent of a bandbox or a decorative storage container, is adorned with an intricate floral pattern in rich, multicolored hues. The delicate yet bold floral motifs, with their sinuous lines and meticulous shading, evoke a sense of elegance and refinement. The use of gold ink adds a touch of opulence and sophistication to the piece, while the circular shape imparts a sense of whimsy and playfulness. This artwork, a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States, is a visual delight that transports us to a bygone era. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. is fortunate to have this precious piece in its collection, indexed under the Index of American Design. Lina Manetto's "Bandbox" is a stunning example of the decorative arts of the 1930s and 1940s, a period that saw a resurgence of interest in traditional arts and crafts, and a blossoming of new artistic styles and techniques.
