The piece is a testament to the ingenuity and functional design prevalent during the mid-20th century in America. The photograph captures every intricate detail of this mechanical device, which served as both a latch and lock. Its metal construction exudes durability while its decorative arts elements add an aesthetic charm to its overall appearance. The combination latch/lock stands as a symbol of the era's commitment to blending functionality with artistic expression. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this period item holds great historical significance within American heritage art. It offers viewers a glimpse into the innovative mindset that prevailed during this time, showcasing how everyday objects were transformed into works of art. James M. Lawson's watercolor graphite and gouache on paper technique perfectly captures the vibrant colors and textures present in his creation.
