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 intriguing artwork showcases a collection of animal figures and human figures interacting with each other against a backdrop of abstract, multicolored designs reminiscent of ancient rock art. Rivol, a native American artist, drew inspiration from the rich cultural heritage of her homeland, incorporating elements of indigenous art into her modern, contemporary style. The title "Petroglyph" refers to the ancient rock carvings created by various cultures around the world, often depicting animals and humans. This artwork was produced during the Depression era in the United States, when the Federal Art Project, a New Deal initiative, provided employment opportunities for artists through the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and the National Recreation Administration. Rivol's "Petroglyph" is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts, and is now housed in the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The political and social climate of the 1930s and 1940s is reflected in the artwork, with its emphasis on the preservation and celebration of American heritage. The human figures in "Petroglyph" appear to be in harmony with their natural surroundings, emphasizing the connection between humans and the land. This piece is a testament to Rivol's artistic vision and her commitment to preserving the rich cultural heritage of her country. With its bold colors and dynamic designs, "Petroglyph" continues to captivate and inspire viewers today, making it an invaluable addition to any art collection or gallery.
