This exquisite pen and ink and graphite on paper drawing, titled "Grandfather Clock, c. 1936" by Ernest A Towers Jr, offers a captivating glimpse into the decorative arts of the 1930s in America. The intricately detailed scale drawing showcases the grandeur and craftsmanship of a traditional wooden grandfather clock, a cherished item of American heritage. The clock, with its ornate wooden case and intricately designed clock face, is depicted in stunning detail, capturing the essence of this iconic timepiece. The clock face, adorned with Roman numerals and intricate designs, adds to the timeless beauty of the piece. The drawing, created during the Thirties, is a testament to the artistic skill and precision of Towers Jr. Measuring approximately 11 x 14 inches, this drawing is a small-scale representation of a much larger and more substantial piece. The use of color and shade in the drawing adds depth and dimension, bringing the clock to life on the page. The Grandfather Clock, c. 1936, is an important addition to the Index of American Design, a comprehensive record of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s. This drawing is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art, Washington D.C., a renowned art center and cultural institution that showcases the finest works of American art. The grandfather clock, a symbol of tradition and family history, has long been a staple of American homes. Towers Jr.'s drawing captures the essence of this beloved artifact, transporting us back in time to a bygone era. This beautiful and intricate drawing is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for American art, decorative arts, and the rich cultural heritage of the United States.
