EDITORS COMMENTS
This Shaker Kerchief print by Lucille Chabot dates back to the 1930s, showcasing the intricate design and functional beauty of Shaker art. The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, commonly known as the Shakers, were a religious sect renowned for their distinctive decorative arts. Lucille Chabot, an American artist, meticulously captured the essence of Shaker design in this monochromatic work. The Shaker Kerchief, created around 1936, is a stunning example of the group's checkered motifs, which were often used in textiles and other household items. The image is a watercolor and pen and ink on paper, with the contrasting white and black tones adding to its timeless appeal. The intricate pattern, reminiscent of a complex jigsaw puzzle, is a testament to the Shakers' commitment to perfection and their belief in the inherent value of craftsmanship. This print is a significant addition to any collection focusing on American art, particularly the decorative arts of the 1930s and 1940s. The Shakers' unique design aesthetic, rooted in their religious beliefs, continues to influence modern art and design. Lucille Chabot's Shaker Kerchief print is now part of the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it is preserved for future generations to appreciate the rich heritage of American art and design.
