Fluter, c. 1940 - A Nostalgic Glimpse into Domestic Life in Mid-20th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Fluter, c. 1940" by John H. Tercuzzi takes us back to a simpler time in American history. The artwork showcases an essential household appliance from the 1930s and 1940s - the fluting iron. In this watercolor graphite and pen and ink on paper composition, Tercuzzi beautifully captures the design and functionality of this period item. The fluter stands tall on its ironing board, exuding a sense of elegance with its sleek lines and polished surface. As we gaze upon this artwork displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , we are transported to a domestic scene where meticulous care was given to every detail of housekeeping. Ironing clothes was not merely a chore but an art form itself during those times. The vibrant colors used by Tercuzzi bring life to the image, reminding us of the importance placed on maintaining one's appearance even amidst challenging circumstances such as World War II. Through this piece, Tercuzzi pays homage to American heritage while also highlighting the ingenuity behind everyday objects that shaped our lives in decades past. "Fluter, c. 1940" is more than just an artistic representation; it serves as a visual time capsule that allows us to reflect upon our roots and appreciate how far we have come in terms
