EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning bag, created by the talented artist Roberta Elvis in approximately 1936. The bag, an exquisite example of decorative arts from the 20th century, is adorned with intricate beadwork that reflects the vibrant colors and floral motifs of its time. Its close-up view allows us to appreciate every meticulous detail and marvel at the skillful craftsmanship. Roberta Elvis's artistic prowess shines through in this vintage piece, which combines watercolor and graphite on paper to create a truly unique work of art. The use of blue and red hues adds depth and richness to the overall composition, making it visually striking. As we delve into this snapshot from America's past, we are transported back to a simpler time when fashion was celebrated as an art form. This bag not only serves as a functional accessory but also stands as a testament to American heritage art. Displayed within the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this drawing exemplifies Elvis's contribution to American folk art during the thirties. It is part of the Index of American Design collection—a treasure trove documenting various forms of traditional craftsmanship across different regions in the United States. Through this remarkable artwork, Roberta Elvis invites us to appreciate both her talent as an artist and her ability to capture history through her pencil strokes.
