Iron Hitching Post, c. 1939
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Rose Campbell-Gerke showcases the intricate craftsmanship and artistic flair of this unique piece from America's agricultural past. In this close-up photograph print, we are transported to a bygone era where ironwork was not only functional but also served as an expression of decorative arts. The hitching post, meticulously rendered in watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paperboard, stands as a testament to the artist's attention to detail. Its sturdy metal structure is adorned with ornate bird motifs, featuring an eagle head at its pinnacle. This blend of nature and industry captures the essence of rural life in 1930s America. As we delve into the image, we can almost feel the weightiness of the iron and appreciate its significance within a country deeply rooted in agriculture. The Iron Hitching Post symbolizes both practicality and artistry - a utilitarian object transformed into a work of heritage art. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artwork offers us a glimpse into American history while celebrating Rose Campbell-Gerke's talent as an artist. Through her skilled handiwork, she immortalizes an era when craftsmanship was revered and everyday objects were elevated to objets d'art. This print invites us to reflect on our connection to our cultural roots and reminds us that even seemingly mundane objects can possess beauty worth preserving for generations to come.
