EDITORS COMMENTS
Evelyn Bailey's Match Container, created around 1937, is a captivating work of art that showcases the artist's exceptional talent for ornamental design. This watercolour and graphite piece on paper depicts a match container adorned with intricately detailed gamebirds and rabbits, set against a backdrop of lush greenery and vibrant foliage. The container, with its rounded edges and delicate lines, exudes an air of elegance and refinement, transporting viewers to a bygone era. Bailey's Match Container is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s. The index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. includes this piece as part of its extensive collection, recognizing its significance as a period item that represents the decorative arts of the time. The Match Container is not only a functional object, but also a work of art in its own right. Bailey's use of colour and contrast, combined with her meticulous attention to detail, creates a visually stunning piece that captivates the imagination. The birds and rabbits, depicted with a sense of movement and vitality, add a playful and whimsical touch to the container's design. This Match Container by Evelyn Bailey is a reminder of the beauty and creativity that can be found in the most unexpected places. It invites us to appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of the past, while also celebrating the enduring appeal of ornamental design.
