EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Woven Coverlet by John Gasaway, created around 1940, is a captivating example of American decorative arts from the 20th century. The coverlet, with its abstract design, showcases the artist's exceptional skill and creativity during the 1930s and 1940s. John Gasaway's Woven Coverlet is a unique work of art that defies traditional definitions. A blend of watercolor and graphite on paper, it is not a physical textile but rather a representation of one. The coverlet's intricate design features a mesmerizing pattern of interwoven blues, evoking the feeling of a traditional quilt or woven fabric. The coverlet's origins lie in the United States, a country rich in textile history. Its abstract design, however, places it firmly in the modernist art movement of the time. The coverlet's vibrant blues transport us to a bygone era, a time when craftsmanship and creativity were highly valued. This beautiful piece is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts held at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The coverlet's inclusion in this esteemed collection is a testament to its historical and artistic significance. The coverlet's location at the National Gallery of Art invites us to explore its intricacies up close, allowing us to appreciate the detail and precision that went into its creation. Whether you're a fan of American art, textile history, or simply appreciate the beauty of abstract design, this Woven Coverlet by John Gasaway is sure to leave a lasting impression.
