EDITORS COMMENTS
Petroglyph, 1935/1942" is a captivating lithograph on paper created by the American artist Lala Eve Rivol during the 1930s or 1940s. This vibrant and multicolored artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Native American people and their deep connection to the land. Rivol, a prominent figure in the American art scene, was known for her exploration of various artistic styles and themes. In this piece, she draws inspiration from the ancient petroglyphs, or rock carvings, that can be found throughout the United States and other parts of the world. These intricate designs, often depicting animals, people, and abstract symbols, have long held significance for indigenous communities as markers of history, spirituality, and identity. Petroglyph, 1935/1942, is a stunning representation of these ancient art forms, rendered in bold, vivid colors. The work is a visual feast, with intricate lines and shapes that seem to dance and intertwine across the surface of the paper. The artist's deft use of color adds depth and dimension, bringing the petroglyphs to life in a modern context. This artwork is a valuable addition to the National Gallery of Art's collection in Washington D.C., which holds an extensive index of American Design. It is a testament to the enduring influence of Native American art and culture on the American artistic tradition. The creation of this work was likely supported by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) or the New Deal, government programs that provided employment and financial assistance to artists and other workers during the Great Depression and the early years of World War II. Petroglyph, 1935/1942, is not only a beautiful work of art but also a political statement, highlighting the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse cultural heritage of the United States. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped the country and continue to inspire artists and audiences alike.
