Bandbox, c. 1938
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of American culture in the 1930s, skillfully captured by artist Mina Lowry. This exquisite print showcases an artifact that represents the essence of this era - a vibrant blue bandbox adorned with intricate designs and patterns. The bandbox itself serves as a metaphorical time capsule, transporting us back to a period when sailing ships dominated the waters and lighthouses stood tall along the coastlines. The choppy waves depicted in watercolor gouache and graphite on paperboard evoke a sense of movement and adventure, reflecting America's fascination with transportation and exploration during this time. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are reminded of how design can be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The careful attention to detail in every brushstroke reveals Lowry's dedication to capturing not only the physical object but also its cultural significance. This piece invites us to reflect on our own history while appreciating the craftsmanship that went into creating such artifacts. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with society, serving as a mirror for our values, aspirations, and dreams. In "Bandbox". Mina Lowry masterfully combines elements of geography, social history, and transportation to create an evocative representation of early 20th-century America. Through her artistic lens, she immortalizes an object that may have once held personal belongings or cherished memories within its walls – now transformed into an enduring symbol of heritage art for generations to come
