EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cigar Store Man, 1937" takes us back to the vibrant era of 1930s America. Created by the talented artist Alvin M Gully, this artwork captures the essence of a bygone time with its meticulous attention to detail. In this close-up shot, we see a distinguished gentleman standing proudly in front of his tobacco shop. Dressed impeccably in a suit and top hat, he exudes an air of sophistication and charm. His hand gestures suggest that he is engaged in conversation or perhaps inviting passersby into his store. Gully's use of pen and ink drawing brings out every intricate line and shadow on the man's face, while watercolor graphite adds depth to his clothing. The artist's skillful technique beautifully showcases both the artistry involved in creating such figures for cigar stores as well as the fashion trends prevalent during that time period. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, this piece from Gully's collection is part of the Index of American Design. It serves as a testament to not only Gully's talent but also to America's rich cultural heritage. Through this photograph, we are transported back to an era where cigar shops were gathering places for gentlemen seeking relaxation and camaraderie. It reminds us how art can capture moments frozen in time and evoke nostalgia for days gone by.
