EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite watercolor and graphite on paperboard rendering of Shaker Scales, created by American artist George V. Vezolles in the late 1930s, offers a captivating glimpse into the functional beauty and artistic sensibilities of the Shaker community during the 20th century. The Shakers were renowned for their minimalist, utilitarian design, and these scales, with their simple yet elegant form, perfectly encapsulate that ethos. The scales, suspended from the wall by a single rod, are poised in a balanced position, ready to weigh an object. The fulcrum, or see-saw, is held in place by a lever, while the shallow bowls at either end are empty, waiting to cradle the items to be weighed. The scales are presented against a plain, monochromatic background, drawing the viewer's focus to the intricacies of the design. This artwork, now part of the National Gallery of Art's collection in Washington D.C., is a testament to the enduring appeal of Shaker design and the artistic vision of George V. Vezolles. The scales, as both a period item and a work of art, serve as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of America during the 1930s and 1940s. The Index of American Design has recognized the significance of this piece, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of American decorative arts or design.
