This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Majel G. Claflin's "Tin and Painted Glass Cross, c. 1937". Created in the heart of America during the 1930s, this artifact beautifully represents the intersection of art and religion. The cross itself is a mesmerizing blend of tin and painted glass, meticulously crafted to evoke a sense of reverence and spirituality. Its vibrant colors and intricate details are brought to life through watercolor gouache colored pencil and graphite on paper, showcasing Claflin's mastery over various artistic mediums. As an index of American design, this piece holds immense historical significance as it reflects both the cultural heritage and religious traditions prevalent in the United States during that era. The National Gallery of Art in Washington is fortunate to house such a remarkable creation within its walls. Claflin's Tin and Painted Glass Cross serves as a testament to her talent as an artist while also symbolizing Christian faith with its crucifix form. It stands as a decorative masterpiece that not only adds beauty but also evokes contemplation among those who behold it. Through this photo print, viewers can appreciate the fusion between metalwork and delicate glass painting techniques employed by Claflin.
