EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Ankle Band or Garters" by Lyman Young, dates back to the 1930s, offering a glimpse into the fashionable yet functional apparel of the 20th century. The intricately detailed illustration showcases a black ankle garter or gaiter, adorned with a bold buckle and delicate straps. The use of watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paper adds depth and texture to the piece, highlighting the artist's mastery of the medium. The ankle garter was a popular accessory during the 1930s and 1940s, serving both as a functional fastener for stockings and as a decorative element in women's fashion. This piece, with its elegant design and understated sophistication, embodies the spirit of the era. Lyman Young, the creator of this artwork, was an American artist known for his contributions to the decorative arts. His work can be found in various art centers and galleries across the United States, including the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. This particular piece is a testament to his ability to capture the essence of everyday objects with artistry and precision. The "Ankle Band or Garters" is not only a period item but also a piece of heritage art that transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and intricacy of a seemingly simple accessory. This artwork invites us to explore the rich history of American fashion and design during the 1930s and 1940s.
