EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the delightful "Flag-pole Finial Pigeon" a remarkable creation by artist Chris Makrenos. Crafted between the 1930s and 1940s, this charming statuette captures the essence of American folk art with its vibrant colors and intricate design. The Flag-pole Finial Pigeon stands as a testament to Makrenos' artistic talent and his deep appreciation for the country's heritage. Made from metal, gouache, graphite, and watercolor on paperboard, this unique piece exudes both elegance and playfulness. Displayed in an art gallery at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artwork has become a beloved symbol of American creativity. Its presence evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times while celebrating the ingenuity found within everyday objects. Makrenos' attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his brush or pencil. The pigeon's feathers are meticulously rendered with delicate lines that bring them to life on paper. Its perched position atop a flagpole finial adds an element of whimsy that invites viewers to appreciate its beauty from all angles. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are transported back to mid-20th century America - a time when craftsmanship was highly valued and artists like Makrenos celebrated their cultural roots through their creations.
