EDITORS COMMENTS
This work of art, titled "Bandbox Design - Hunting Scene" by Harold Merriam, dates back to the 1930s, specifically around 1936. The painting is a prime example of American art from the 20th century, with the 1930s and 1940s being a significant period in Merriam's career. Merriam's "Hunting Scene" is a genre painting that showcases the rich heritage of American country life. The multi-colored, watercolor gouache and graphite on paper depiction captures the essence of a traditional hunting scene, with hunters in the foreground preparing for their hunt, while the background is filled with vibrant fall foliage and a picturesque landscape. The Bandbox Design in the title refers to the decorative boxes that were popular during this time, often used for storing and transporting various items. The intricately designed boxes, as depicted in the painting, were a functional yet artistic addition to American homes during the 1930s and 1940s. Harold Merriam's "Hunting Scene" is a colorful and detailed representation of a bygone era, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery. The painting can be found in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it is preserved for future generations to appreciate the beauty and history of American art. This work of art is not only a visual delight but also a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The Index of American Design has recognized the importance of Merriam's work, making it an essential piece of American decorative arts history.
