EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of craftsmanship from the 1930s - a Wooden Thread Holder created by Edward L Loper. The artist's keen eye for detail and skillful execution are evident in this exquisite work of art. The thread holder, made entirely out of wood, displays an intricate design that is both functional and visually appealing. Its smooth curves and delicate carvings make it a true testament to Loper's talent as an artisan. With its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, this artwork captures the essence of the era it was created in. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of the importance of needlework during that time, with cotton reels neatly arranged on the spool holder waiting to be transformed into beautiful garments or intricate embroidery. Loper's choice of watercolor graphite and gouache on paper brings out the texture and depth of the wooden surface, adding another layer of realism to this stunning depiction. The silk threads draped gracefully over the holder further enhance its beauty. As part of the Index of American Design collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, this piece represents not only Loper's artistic prowess but also serves as a valuable historical artifact. It stands as a testament to America's rich heritage in arts and crafts. This print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both Loper's mastery as well as celebrate our cultural legacy through his exceptional creation.
