EDITORS COMMENTS
Petroglyph Design, 1935/1942" is a captivating lithograph on paper created by the American artist Lala Eve Rivol during the 1930s or 1940s. This vibrant and intriguing artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Americas, specifically focusing on the ancient practice of petroglyph creation. Rivol, an influential figure in American art, masterfully depicted human figures interacting with petroglyphs in this multi-colored lithograph. The design showcases a deep connection between the human experience and the natural world, as the figures appear to engage with the ancient rock art in a respectful and reverent manner. This artwork is a significant contribution to the Index of American Design, a New Deal project initiated by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The WPA aimed to document and preserve American art and cultural heritage through various artistic projects, providing employment opportunities during the Great Depression. The petroglyphs in the artwork are inspired by the ancient rock art found throughout the United States and Canada, which dates back thousands of years and is believed to have been created by various indigenous cultures. This artwork serves as a political statement, emphasizing the importance of preserving and acknowledging the cultural heritage of indigenous peoples. Petroglyph Design, 1935/1942, is a striking example of Rivol's artistic vision and her dedication to showcasing the beauty and significance of American history and culture. The artwork is a colorful and captivating addition to any art collection or gallery, and is a reminder of the deep connection between the human experience and the natural world, as well as the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations. This artwork is currently held in the collections of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a valuable and intriguing piece of American art history.
