EDITORS COMMENTS
This square lantern, created by Lazar Rubinstein in 1939, is a stunning example of American art from the 1930s. The lantern, now a cherished artifact, showcases the harmonious blend of functional design and artistic expression that characterized the era. Rubinstein, a talented artist and designer, expertly combined graphite on paperboard with metal and glass to create this intriguing piece. The square shape, a popular motif of the time, adds a modern and unique touch to the traditional lantern design. The use of color and contrasting materials – the matte graphite background juxtaposed with the transparent glass and gleaming metal – adds depth and visual interest. Originally intended for both decorative and practical purposes, this square lantern is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the 20th century. It is a period item that embodies the artistic and design sensibilities of the 1930s, a time when functional art began to gain prominence. Now, as a cherished piece in the collections of esteemed art galleries and museums, such as the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., this square lantern by Lazar Rubinstein continues to inspire and captivate audiences. Its inclusion in the Index of American Design further solidifies its importance and value in the annals of American art history.
