This print titled "Secretary, c. 1937" takes us back to the vibrant era of 1930s America. Created by Ernest A Towers Jr, a renowned artist of the time, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent in capturing the essence of everyday objects with great detail and precision. The image features an exquisite wooden secretary desk, beautifully crafted with intricate designs and oval-shaped mirrors. The rich brown color adds warmth to the overall composition, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era. As we gaze at this period item through Towers Jr's artistic lens, we are transported to a different time and place. The desk is adorned with various decorative arts that reflect the craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent during that decade. A looking glass positioned on top allows us to catch a glimpse of our reflection as we imagine ourselves sitting at this elegant piece of furniture. It serves as both functional and ornamental, enhancing its appeal as an iconic symbol from American history. Displayed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this watercolor-colored pencil pen and ink graphite on paper artwork is part of Towers Jr's contribution to the Index of American Design collection. It stands as a testament to his dedication in preserving heritage art for future generations. Through this mesmerizing print, we can appreciate not only Towers Jr's skill but also gain insight into the cultural significance attached to furniture design during that particular period in United States history.
