EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative work of art, titled "Pitcher, c. 1941" by American artist Joseph Mitry, transports us back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The pitcher, rendered in exquisite detail with watercolor, graphite, and colored pencil on paperboard, showcases Mitry's mastery of both form and color. The pitcher's green hue, reminiscent of fresh foliage, adds a touch of the natural world to this elegant piece. The pitcher's shape is both functional and decorative, a testament to the rich tradition of American glassware and design. The translucent quality of the green color adds an intriguing depth and dimension to the artwork, inviting the viewer to imagine the pitcher filled with cool water or perhaps a vibrant, seasonal bouquet. Mitry's "Pitcher, c. 1941" is a significant addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts from the colonial period through the 1940s. This work is now part of the esteemed collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. As we gaze at this beautiful pitcher, we are transported to a time when the simple pleasures of daily life were celebrated, and the beauty of American craftsmanship was a source of national pride. Mitry's "Pitcher, c. 1941" is a testament to the enduring power of art to evoke emotion, transport us to another time and place, and remind us of the rich cultural heritage that surrounds us.
