Possum Pitcher, c. 1938 - A Whimsical Delight in Ceramic Art
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This charming photograph captures the essence of American decorative arts in the late 1930s. Created by Ernest A Towers Jr, this Possum Pitcher showcases his exceptional talent and creativity. Crafted with watercolour graphite and gouache on paperboard, it is a testament to Towers Jr's mastery of ceramics. The pitcher itself is a delightful blend of artistry and functionality. Its brown hue adds warmth to any setting while its unique design evokes a sense of playfulness. The possum motif brings an element of nature into the home, reminding us of America's rich wildlife heritage. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this period item represents an important era in American history - a time when artists like Towers Jr sought inspiration from their country's cultural roots. As part of the Index of American Design collection, it stands as a symbol of artistic expression during the mid-20th century. Whether admired for its intricate craftsmanship or appreciated for its whimsical charm, this Possum Pitcher offers viewers a glimpse into America's past through art. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects can be transformed into works of beauty and imagination.
