EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Altar for a Chinese Temple, beautifully captured by the talented artist Vera Van Voris in 1939. The artwork, created using watercolor colored pencil and graphite on paperboard, brings to life the intricate details of this sacred space. The Altar stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of China, with its vibrant colors and ornate design. Every element within the frame tells a story - from the carefully carved wooden structure to the delicate artifacts adorning it. It is a visual representation of devotion and spirituality. Van Voris skillfully captures not only the physical beauty of this religious artifact but also manages to convey its spiritual significance. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to her work, evoking a sense of reverence that one might feel when standing before such an altar. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this piece serves as an important reminder of America's appreciation for diverse cultures and their artistic expressions. Through her artistry, Van Voris invites viewers into a world where religion transcends borders and connects people across time and place. As we gaze upon this remarkable creation by Vera Van Voris, we are transported back in time to witness both the craftsmanship involved in constructing such altars as well as experience moments of tranquility found within these sacred spaces.
