EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and charming print captures the essence of a bygone era. Titled "Toy Bank: Dutch Girl at Well, 1938" this artwork was created by Charles Moss, an American artist known for his craftsmanship in metalwork. The image showcases a decorative iron toy bank in the shape of a Dutch girl standing beside a well. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this piece. From the multi-colored watercolor and graphite on paperboard technique to the intricate design of the toy bank itself, it exudes both functionality and beauty. This period item hails from the 1930s-1940s, representing an important decade in American history. Moss's creation transports us to another time and place – perhaps a quaint village in the Low Countries. The Dutch girl's traditional dress adds authenticity to her character as she stands gracefully next to the well handle, ready to collect savings from eager children. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art Washington as part of their Index of American Design collection, this artwork symbolizes not only Moss's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of our heritage and cultural diversity. It reminds us that even everyday objects can be transformed into works of art that capture our imagination and evoke nostalgia for simpler times. Whether you appreciate its historical significance or simply admire its aesthetic appeal, "Toy Bank: Dutch Girl at Well" is sure to captivate viewers with its colorful charm and timeless allure.
