Bandbox, c. 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of American folk art from the 1930s. Created by Arsen Maralian, this vibrant and intricate piece showcases his exceptional talent in design and painting. The bandbox itself serves as the focal point of the artwork - a container that was commonly used to store hats or other delicate items during that era. Maralian's use of color is striking, with shades of yellow dominating the composition. The box is adorned with patterns meticulously painted in watercolor gouache and graphite on paperboard, showcasing Maralian's attention to detail. This piece exemplifies the rich heritage art found within America's artistic landscape. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era when handcrafted objects were cherished for their beauty and functionality. The artist's skillful execution transforms a simple storage item into an exquisite work of art. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , "Bandbox, c. 1936" stands as a testament to Maralian's contribution to American art history. Its presence within this prestigious institution highlights its significance as part of the index of American design. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to experience both the creativity and craftsmanship that defined early 20th-century America. It serves as a reminder of our country's artistic legacy and invites us to appreciate the beauty found within everyday objects.
