EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink rendering on paperboard by Gerard Barnett captures the essence of a classic American satchel from the 1930s and 1940s. The intricately detailed design showcases the satchel's rich brown color and the elegant embellishments that adorn its exterior. The satchel's clasp is depicted in crisp detail, its fastening securely holding the bag shut. The satchel, a period item from a bygone era, is a testament to the enduring appeal of simple yet functional design. The satchel, a quintessential accessory of the time, was a common sight in both rural and urban America during the 1930s and 1940s. This artwork, created by Gerard Barnett in the mid-20th century, serves as a visual index of American design during this period. The satchel's timeless appeal is on full display in this work of art, which invites viewers to imagine the stories and memories that may be hidden within its folds. This artwork, titled "Satchel, 1935/1942," is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive collection of American decorative arts held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The collection, which includes over 18,000 drawings and watercolors, documents the visual heritage of the United States from the colonial period to the 1940s. This artwork by Gerard Barnett is a valuable addition to the collection, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the beauty and simplicity of American design.
