EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning coverlet, created by Jules Lefevere in approximately 1936, is a captivating example of American decorative arts from the 20th century. The coverlet, now a cherished artifact, showcases the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s. Measuring an impressive size, this coverlet is adorned with a vibrant floral design, executed in gouache and graphite on paperboard. The intricate floral pattern, reminiscent of haberdashery, is a testament to Lefevere's mastery of both color and concept. The coverlet's blue and white color palette adds a sense of tranquility and timelessness to the piece. The coverlet's fringed edges add a touch of elegance and sophistication, making it a desirable addition to any home or art gallery. This period item, now housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., is an important contribution to the Index of American Design. Lefevere's coverlet is a conceptual exploration of the beauty and artistry found in everyday objects, such as textiles and homeware. Its presence in the National Gallery of Art serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse artistic traditions of the United States. As a visual representation of American culture during the thirties, Lefevere's coverlet continues to inspire and captivate audiences, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of art to evoke emotion and transport us to another time and place.
