EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Visiting Card Tray, created by the talented Mildred Ford in approximately 1941. The tray, an exquisite piece of art from the early 20th century, reflects the vibrant spirit of America during that era. Ford's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artifact. The delicate floral design adorning the tray adds a touch of elegance and charm, while the use of watercolor pen and ink on paperboard brings out its vivid colors. The artist's skillful hand has beautifully captured the essence of American culture and heritage. The Visiting Card Tray serves as a testament to an age when calling cards were an essential part of social etiquette. It symbolizes not only communication but also status and refinement. This unique piece invites us to imagine a time when people exchanged these small tokens as they visited friends or acquaintances. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D. C. , this artwork stands as a proud representation of American creativity and craftsmanship. Its presence within this prestigious gallery further solidifies its significance within our cultural history. Mildred Ford's Visiting Card Tray transports us back to the thirties, evoking nostalgia for a bygone era where beauty was found even in everyday objects like trays meant for holding visiting cards.
