EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a drawing from the portfolio "Folk Art of Rural Pennsylvania" dating back to approximately 1939. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to this piece. The artwork itself reflects the rich heritage and cultural traditions of rural Pennsylvania during the 19th and 20th centuries. The drawing features a close-up view of Plate 12, depicting a vibrant array of flora and fauna in exquisite detail. A variety of birds, beautifully rendered with gouache on paper, take center stage against a backdrop of lush greenery. Their colorful plumage adds depth and character to the composition. The floral pattern surrounding these avian creatures evokes feelings of nostalgia for simpler times when nature played an integral role in daily life. This folk art masterpiece captures the essence of Pennsylvania's countryside, showcasing its natural beauty through intricate design elements. With its colonial influences evident in both style and subject matter, this drawing serves as a testament to America's historical roots. It also highlights the importance placed on religious symbolism during that era, as evidenced by references to baptismal certificates within the image. Preserved by the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this piece is part of their Index of American Design collection. Its multi-colored palette brings warmth and vibrancy to any space it adorns while serving as a visual reminder of our shared heritage.
