EDITORS COMMENTS
Title: Kettle, 1935/1942 Creator: Rollington Campbell (American, 20th century) This graphite on paper drawing, titled "Kettle," is a captivating work by the American artist Rollington Campbell from the 1930s or 1940s. The image depicts an intricately detailed, functional kettle, with a distinctly decorative flair. The kettle's form is rendered with remarkable precision, capturing its rounded body, spout, and handle with a sense of depth and texture. Campbell's "Kettle" is a testament to the artist's keen observation of everyday objects and his ability to elevate them to the realm of art. The drawing is a thoughtful exploration of the intersection between form and function, showcasing the beauty and elegance inherent in common household items. The kettle's age is uncertain, with some sources suggesting it was created in the 1930s during the height of the Art Deco period, while others attribute it to the 1940s. Regardless of its exact date, "Kettle" reflects the cultural and artistic sensibilities of its time, showcasing the importance of functional design and the appreciation for the aesthetic value of everyday objects. This work is an essential addition to any collection focused on American art, decorative arts, or the Index of American Design. It is a striking example of the rich artistic heritage of the United States and a reminder of the beauty that can be found in the most ordinary of objects. Currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., "Kettle" is a must-see for art enthusiasts, historians, and anyone interested in the history of American art and design.
