EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite White Linen Corded Bonnet, created by American artist Richard Whitaker between 1935 and 1942, is a stunning example of functional art from the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. The bonnet, rendered in watercolor and graphite on paperboard, showcases the intricate detail and beauty of traditional American clothing design. The bonnet's white linen fabric and decorative corded edging are reminiscent of the country's rich textile heritage, with the corded detail adding a touch of elegance and sophistication. The bonnet's simple yet elegant design is a testament to the functional art movement of the time, which emphasized the importance of beauty and craftsmanship in everyday objects. The White Linen Corded Bonnet is a period item that transports us back to a bygone era, evoking images of babes in arms swathed in soft white linen, their heads adorned with this charming headdress. The bonnet's color palette, consisting solely of white, adds to its timeless appeal, making it a beloved piece of American decorative arts. This artwork is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts and folk art, and is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The bonnet's inclusion in this esteemed collection is a testament to its cultural significance and enduring appeal. Whether displayed in an art center or gallery, or admired as a private collection piece, the White Linen Corded Bonnet continues to captivate and inspire viewers with its intricate design and historical significance.
