EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Comb (For Agricultural Use)" by Charlotte Winter, dates back to the 1930s and offers a unique glimpse into American rural life during the 20th century. The intricately detailed watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink rendering on paper showcases a wooden and metal agricultural tool, designed specifically for use in the combing of soil to prepare it for planting. The Comb's rustic charm and functional beauty are evident in Winter's masterful depiction, with the natural wood grain contrasting against the smooth, polished metal teeth. The tool's age and history are further emphasized by the subtle wear and patina on its surface, adding to its character and allure. As part of the Index of American Design, this piece is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of American agriculture and the ingenuity of its people. The Comb serves as a reminder of the hard work and dedication required to cultivate the land and sustain the rural communities of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. Displayed proudly in the Decorative Arts collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., "Comb (For Agricultural Use)" is not only a visually stunning work of art but also an important historical artifact. Charlotte Winter's meticulous attention to detail and her ability to capture the essence of this humble yet essential tool make it a cherished addition to the gallery's extensive collection.
