EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Flour Barrel, 1935/1942" by Wilbur M Rice takes us back to the heart of American culture in the 1930s and 1940s. The image showcases a functional yet beautifully designed flour barrel, highlighting the importance of baking and cooking during this era. The circular shape of the wooden barrel is accentuated by its rich brown color, evoking a sense of warmth and nostalgia. As an artefact from that time period, it represents not only a practical container for storing flour but also a symbol of domesticity and country living. Rice's artistic approach combines watercolor and graphite on paper, bringing out intricate details that make this piece truly remarkable. The texture of the wood grain is delicately captured, adding depth to the overall composition. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington as part of their Index of American Design collection, this artwork reflects America's heritage art scene. It serves as a reminder of how everyday objects can hold historical significance and contribute to our understanding of past cultures. Through his lens, Rice invites us to appreciate both the functionality and aesthetic value found in kitchenware from decades ago. This photograph print transports viewers back in time while celebrating craftsmanship and design that still resonate today.
