EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Chest of Drawers, created by Frances Lichten between 1935 and 1942. The artist's attention to detail is evident in this stunning piece, which seamlessly blends elements from both the 1930s and 1940s eras. The chest stands as a testament to American decorative arts during this time period, reflecting the country's rich heritage and artistic flair. Its wooden structure is adorned with delicate floral designs that add an air of elegance to its overall appearance. The use of watercolor graphite and gouache on paper brings out the vibrant colors, particularly the soothing green hue that dominates the composition. What truly sets this artwork apart are the angelic figures perched atop each drawer. These ethereal beings seem to come alive amidst their surroundings, adding a touch of spirituality and religious symbolism to an otherwise functional piece of furniture. Their presence evokes a sense of serenity and tranquility within any space where this chest resides. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this Chest of Drawers serves as a reminder not only of Frances Lichten's talent but also highlights America's contribution to design history. It exemplifies how art can transcend mere utility, transforming everyday objects into works that inspire awe and admiration for generations to come.
