A Wisconsin Decorative Arts Feathursday
This week we present some decorative avian motifs form the 1948 portfolio Decorative Art in Wisconsin by Anne Kendall Foote (1910-1986) and Elaine A. G. Smedal (1922-2014), published in Madison, Wisconsin by Screen Art Company. The portfolio is a follow-up to the authors' 1946 portfolio Norwegian Design in Wisconsin, and was funded by a grant from the University of Wisconsin's Committee on the Study of American Civilization. The portfolio includes 15 original silk-screened prints with photographs and descriptions of the artifacts that the designs are drawn from.
We were delighted that bird images were included, and particularly delighted that some of them were . . . CHICKENS!!
