EDITORS COMMENTS
This coverlet design by American artist Hazel Sheckler, titled "Coverlet, 1937," is a stunning representation of decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The vibrant and intricate artwork, created using watercolor gouache and graphite on paper, showcases a rich tapestry of floral patterns, checks, and stripes in shades of blue, red, and white. Sheckler's coverlet design is a testament to the functional yet artistic nature of textiles during this period. The detailed, hand-drawn image captures the essence of country charm and traditional Americana, with a floral design that appears both whimsical and elegant. The red and blue color palette is reminiscent of the patriotic spirit of the era, while the white background adds a sense of purity and simplicity. The coverlet's border is adorned with a delicate fringe, adding an extra layer of texture and visual interest. The intricate patterns and designs suggest the influence of quilting and weaving techniques popular during this time, making it an important piece in the index of American design. This period item, now a cherished piece of heritage art, is a must-see addition to any art centre or gallery, showcasing the beauty and craftsmanship of textiles during the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is one such esteemed institution that would be fortunate to add this masterpiece to its collection.
