Dated around 1936, this piece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during the 20th century. The vase is a beautiful example of stoneware pottery, with a smooth, glossy finish that enhances the intricate relief decorations. The design features a lively medallion scene, filled with vibrant colors and dynamic shapes. The artist's use of watercolor, graphite, and heightening on paper as a preliminary sketch for the final piece is evident in the detailed depiction of the scene. John Dana's work is known for its functional yet artistic qualities, making this vase a perfect addition to any table setting. The vase's design is reminiscent of the Art Deco period, with its geometric shapes and bold colors reflecting the trends of the time. This piece is a significant addition to any collection of decorative arts, and is a must-see for anyone interested in American art of the 20th century. The vase is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and delight visitors from around the world.
