EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable creation by Mary E Humes, titled "Child's Coat, c. 1937". Stepping into the vibrant world of 20th-century America, this artwork captures the essence of childrenswear in the 1930s with its exquisite design and attention to detail. The coat itself is a testament to Humes' artistic prowess. The close-up reveals intricate lace detailing adorning the collar and cuffs, adding an air of elegance to this charming piece. Its rich purple color exudes sophistication while maintaining a playful touch that perfectly complements its intended wearer. Humes' mastery shines through her use of watercolor graphite and pen and ink on paper. Every stroke brings life to this old-fashioned garment, showcasing her impeccable skill in capturing texture and form. The delicate buttons delicately placed down the front add both functionality and aesthetic appeal. As we delve deeper into this artful representation, it becomes clear that Humes has preserved not only fashion but also history within her work. This child's coat serves as a window into an era when clothing was meticulously crafted by hand—a reminder of craftsmanship lost in today's fast-paced world.
