EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of a bygone era with George Roehl's watercolor, colored pencil, and graphite rendering of a Lumberman's First Aid Kit from the 1940s. The kit, depicted in vibrant orange hues, is a testament to the importance of preparedness and the unique needs of rural occupations. The combination of metal and wood in the design speaks to the durability required for use in the forest, while the intricate handle showcases the functional artistry of the piece. Created during the 1930s and 1940s, this artwork is a valuable addition to any decorative arts or American history collection. The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. holds this piece as part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American-made objects from the colonial period to the 1940s. The Lumberman's First Aid Kit is a poignant reminder of the daily challenges and necessities of rural professions during this time. The scientific advancements in medicine are reflected in the diverse array of items contained within the kit, from bandages and splints to antiseptics and pain relievers. As we admire the intricacies of Roehl's design, we are transported back to a time when the simple pleasures of country life were intertwined with the demands of a hardworking occupation. This evocative piece is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical artifact that tells a story of American heritage and resilience.
