EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Florian Rokita's "Pierced Iron Lantern" from 1936. The lantern, a functional piece of art, exemplifies the design aesthetics prevalent in mid-20th century America. With its intricate pierced ironwork and elegant brown color, this lantern exudes both beauty and functionality. Its delicate candleholder provides a warm glow that illuminates any space it graces. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every curve and pattern of the metalwork. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this piece represents an important period item within American heritage art. It is part of the esteemed Index of American Design collection, which celebrates iconic artworks that define our nation's artistic legacy. Rokita's mastery shines through as he expertly captures the essence of this lantern using watercolor graphite and gouache on paperboard. His skillful technique brings out each nuanced shade and texture, allowing viewers to appreciate every aspect of this remarkable creation. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back to a bygone era when such objects were cherished for their aesthetic appeal as well as their practical use. This artwork serves as a reminder not only of Rokita's talent but also of America's rich artistic history during the 1930s and 1940s.
