"Adam and Eve, " Early Art Deco Drawing by Glidden Parker
About the Item
A classic example of stylized Art Deco drawing with attenuated figures, this depiction of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden was created by Glidden Parker, who is most famous for his influence on modern ceramics and home design. His stripped-down, geometric forms for tableware and decorative ware became widely popular in the 1940s and 1950s, and his earliest pieces sometimes have Art Deco decorative motifs. This drawing precedes the establishment of Glidden pottery by a couple of years, and belonged to Katherine Nelson, a good friend of Parker and a designer at the pottery for years.

- 1924 Propaganda Style Art Deco Drawing Switzerland and French Revolutionary WarsBy J. NusinkLocated in Lisse, NLUnique and original work of art about the history of Switzerland and France. This impressive and powerful work of art is definitely unique and interesting for many reasons. First of all, the style in which this charcoal drawing (with patches of watercolor) was made, is typical of the era and a joy to look at. Secondly, the posters of this era are rare and sought after, so to find an original drawing makes this antique extra desirable. Thirdly, the powerful male and female figure show a kind of determination that is often found in propaganda posters from this era, but the quality of the execution lifts it to another level. Fourthly, if you read about the French revolutionary...Category
