EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history, the "Portable Medicine Cabinet" created by Regina Henderer in 1938. This exquisite artwork captures the essence of 20th-century America and its innovative approach to medicine and design. The cabinet itself is a true testament to Henderer's artistic prowess, combining elements of woodwork and craftsmanship with practicality. Its compact size makes it ideal for travel, allowing individuals to carry their essential medical supplies wherever they go. In this close-up shot, we can appreciate the intricate details that went into creating this masterpiece. The artist's skillful use of watercolor colored pencil gouache and pen and ink on paperboard brings life to every aspect of the cabinet, from its wooden exterior to the carefully designed compartments within. As we explore further, we discover vials neatly arranged inside along with various other containers holding medicines and scientific instruments. This portable medicine cabinet serves as a reminder of an era when healthcare was more personalized and self-sufficient. Preserving our heritage through art is crucial, which is why this piece finds its home at the National Gallery of Art in Washington. It stands as a symbol not only of Regina Henderer's talent but also as a tribute to the ingenuity and resourcefulness that defined American society during the 1930s. Through this photograph print, viewers are transported back in time - an invitation to reflect on how far medicine has come while appreciating timeless craftsmanship that continues to inspire us today.
