EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Pa. German Music Box, created by Charlotte Angus between 1935 and 1942, showcases the rich heritage and intricate craftsmanship of Pennsylvania Dutch art. The 20th-century piece, with its warm, inviting color palette and intricate carving, transports us back to the 1930s and 1940s in America. Angus, a skilled artist and craftswoman, masterfully hand-carved this wooden music box, adorned with a lively scene of dancers engaged in traditional Pennsylvania German folk dances. The dancers, dressed in authentic costumes, are depicted mid-movement, capturing the joy and energy of the occasion. The music box also features a harpist playing a harp, adding to the festive atmosphere. The music box is a testament to the vibrant decorative arts scene in Pennsylvania during this period. It is a beautiful example of the handicrafts and index of American design that emerged from the Pennsylvania Colony. The intricate wood carving and watercolor on paper detailing make this piece a standout in any art collection. This Pa. German Music Box, with its charming and authentic representation of Pennsylvania Dutch heritage, is a treasure to behold. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that continue to influence American art and design today. Displayed proudly in an art center or gallery, it would be a captivating addition to any exhibition on the decorative arts of the 1930s and 1940s in the United States.
