EDITORS COMMENTS
This Pa. German Plate, created by artist David Ellinger in the late 1930s, showcases the rich cultural heritage of Pennsylvania Dutch art. The plate, now a cherished piece of American decorative arts, is a stunning example of the floral designs that were popular during the 1930s and 1940s. David Ellinger, an accomplished artist, expertly combined watercolor and graphite on paperboard to bring this vibrant and intricate design to life. The plate's surface is adorned with a beautiful floral pattern, featuring a variety of blooms in rich browns, yellows, and reds. The flowers are interspersed with delicate green leaves, creating a harmonious balance between color and texture. The plate's design pays homage to the Pennsylvania German tradition, which was heavily influenced by European folk art. This tradition, also known as Pennsylvania Dutch art, was characterized by its use of bright colors, intricate patterns, and natural motifs. The Pa. German Plate is a testament to the enduring appeal of this artistic style, which continues to captivate collectors and art enthusiasts alike. This period item, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Pennsylvania and the United States as a whole. Whether displayed in a gallery or on a table as tableware, this Pa. German Plate is a true work of art that adds character and charm to any setting. Its intricate design and beautiful color palette make it a beloved piece of American art history.
