Measure, c. 1940 - A Glimpse into Rural American Life
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Measure, c. 1940" created by Hester Duany, offers a nostalgic glimpse into rural America during the forties. The artwork showcases an exquisite wooden carving of a measuring cup, meticulously depicted in watercolor and graphite on paperboard. The close-up view allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this rustic kitchenware object. The artist's skillful use of color brings life to the wood grain and highlights the craftsmanship behind this vintage piece. Duany's work not only captures the physicality of this measurement tool but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when rural communities relied on such humble utensils in their daily lives. This artwork becomes more than just an object; it symbolizes a way of life that has since evolved with modernization. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , "Measure" is part of the Index of American Design collection that celebrates heritage art from across the United States. It serves as a testament to our country's rich artistic history and cultural heritage. As we admire Duany's pencil drawing brought to life with watercolor, let us reflect upon how objects like these carry stories within them—stories that connect us to our roots and remind us of where we come from.
