EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Reredos-Mission San Juan Bautista, a remarkable piece of art created by Ethel Dougan in 1938. The Reredos, an altar screen located in the Mission San Juan Bautista, stands as a testament to both American architecture and Christian heritage. With its symmetrical design and vibrant green color palette, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of religious devotion. Dougan's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of her pencil drawing. Using watercolor colored pencils and graphite on paperboard, she skillfully brings this sacred partition to life. The closed church doors depicted in the image add an air of mystery and reverence. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we are transported back to 1930s America – a time when art was not only appreciated but celebrated as well. This photograph serves as a reminder of our country's rich artistic history and cultural significance. Preserved within the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , Dougan's creation holds immense value for those who appreciate fine art. Its inclusion in the Index of American Design further solidifies its importance within our national heritage. Through this photo print, we can admire Dougan's talent while also reflecting on our own spirituality and connection with religion. It serves as a visual representation of faith that transcends time and reminds us that art has always played an integral role in expressing human beliefs and emotions.
