Treasury of American Design and Antiques: A Pictorial Survey of Popular Folk Arts Based Upon Watercolor Renderings in the Index of American Design, at the National Gallery of Art
This is a pictorial survey of popular folk art, based on watercolour renderings in the Index of American Design at the National Gallery of Art. The book presents a record, executed during the 1930s by hundreds of artists under the Works Progress Administration, of American craft traditions from early Colonial times to the end of the 19th century. Nearly 3000 drawings in watercolour and tempera, coupled with photographs, illustrate many kinds of American folk art from teapots and tankards to saddles and stirrups.
