EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a Lace and Straw Bonnet, created by Henry De Wolfe in the 1940s. The bonnet, a true testament to American fashion during this era, is beautifully depicted through a combination of watercolor and graphite on paperboard. The delicate lace detailing gracefully adorns the edges of the bonnet, adding an air of elegance and femininity. The straw hat itself exudes charm with its natural color and texture, reflecting the simplicity and rusticity associated with country living. A vibrant ribbon weaves its way around the crown of the bonnet, providing a pop of color amidst a sea of black. Adorned with flowers carefully placed along one side, this accessory brings nature's beauty into everyday attire. Henry De Wolfe's meticulous pencil drawing captures every intricate detail with precision. His artistry transports us back to a time when millinery was not only functional but also an expression of personal style. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this vintage piece from their Index of American Design collection serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact. It reminds us that fashion has always been intertwined with culture and heritage. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to another time - where women donned these fashionable creations as they went about their daily lives in mid-20th century America.
