EDITORS COMMENTS
This work of art, titled "Wine Glass" by American artist May Hays, dates back to the 1930s and 1940s. The image, created using watercolor and graphite on paperboard, is a stunning representation of a clear glass wine glass from that era. The intricate details of the glass's delicate stem and curvaceous bowl are expertly captured, with the transparency of the glass adding an element of elegance and sophistication. The image transports us back in time to a bygone era, evoking memories of grand dinner parties, formal gatherings, and the simple pleasure of savoring a fine wine. The glass, with its slender stem and wide, open bowl, is a quintessential symbol of the Decorative Arts movement of the 20th century. May Hays, an accomplished artist, masterfully used color and contrast to bring the glass to life on the page. The use of watercolor and graphite adds depth and texture, making the glass appear as if it could be reached out and touched. The glass, with its see-through quality, reflects the light and casts a warm, inviting glow. This piece is not only a beautiful work of art but also a significant historical artifact. It is part of the Index of American Design, a comprehensive catalog of American decorative arts from the Colonial period to the 1940s, housed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., USA. The image serves as a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the United States during the 1930s and 1940s.
