EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "NATIVE GROUND, c1937" takes us back to the early days of American Broadway. The poster, created for a Federal Theatre Project production of Native Ground by Virgil Geddes, showcases the artistic brilliance that emerged during this era. The Maxine Elliott Theatre in New York City served as the backdrop for this groundbreaking play, which explored themes of farmland and rural life. The silkscreen technique used in creating this poster adds depth and texture to the illustration, capturing the essence of the time period. Intriguingly, the image features a plow cutting through a field, symbolizing both physical labor and metaphorical progress. The text on the poster is minimal yet impactful, drawing attention to the title "Native Ground" while leaving room for interpretation. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from 1937, we are reminded of how art has always been intertwined with social movements. This piece represents not only an important moment in theater history but also reflects on America's past struggles and aspirations during a time marked by economic hardship. Granger Art on Demand presents us with another gem from their collection - an evocative snapshot that transports us back to a pivotal period in American culture.
