EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a trivet created by American artist Glenn Wilson in the early 1940s. The trivet, a functional yet decorative object, is depicted in this watercolor and graphite drawing on paperboard. The intricate design showcases Wilson's exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. The trivet, a staple in American kitchenware during the 1930s and 1940s, was often used to protect table surfaces from hot pots and pans. However, Wilson elevated the humble trivet to an art form with his unique and artistic interpretation. The trivet in this photograph is adorned with a vibrant and colorful decorative pattern, reminiscent of the Art Deco style that was popular during the 1930s. The design features geometric shapes, bold lines, and a harmonious color palette, reflecting the aesthetic sensibilities of the time. This trivet, a testament to Wilson's creativity and artistic vision, is part of the Index of American Design collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. The Index of American Design is a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts and crafts from the Colonial period to the 1940s, making this trivet an important addition to the collection. The image of the trivet offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of American art and design during the 20th century, showcasing the functional beauty and artistic innovation that characterized this period. Wilson's trivet is not only a testament to the artist's skill and creativity but also a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the decorative arts of the past.
