Pitcher, c. 1938 - A Captivating Glimpse into America's Abattoir Culture
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This mesmerizing print captures the essence of American abattoir culture in the 1930s, as depicted by J. Howard Iams. Titled "Pitcher" this artifact from the Index of American Design showcases a unique blend of artistry and historical significance. Iams skillfully employs watercolor graphite and gouache on paperboard to bring this piece to life, using vibrant colors that evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. The pitcher itself stands as a symbol of functionality and design, with its graceful handle and decorative elements adding an artistic touch. Set against the backdrop of an abattoir, or slaughterhouse, we are reminded of America's deep-rooted connection to food production during this time period. The presence of deer, dogs, hogs, and pigs further emphasizes the integral role animals played in sustaining communities across the country. As we gaze upon this artwork housed within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , we are transported back to a simpler time when agriculture was at the heart of American culture. It serves as a testament to our country's rich heritage art and offers us insight into how our ancestors lived their lives. With each brushstroke meticulously placed by J. Howard Iams' hand, "Pitcher" invites us to reflect on our relationship with nature and food while appreciating both its aesthetic beauty and historical context.
