👦 About Jerry Evans:
Jerry Evans was a mid-20th-century artist celebrated for his lithographic prints and 3D paper tole art. His works often depicted children in heartwarming, pastoral scenes and were heavily inspired by Berta Hummel’s earlier creations from the 1930s. Evans' art, produced mainly in the 1970s and 1980s, became a hallmark of vintage decor for its layered craftsmanship and sentimental value.
👧 The Connection to Berta Hummel:
Berta Hummel (1909–1946): A German nun and artist whose illustrations of children became globally renowned, leading to the creation of the iconic Hummel figurines by Goebel.
Jerry Evans: While Hummel’s work predates Evans by decades, his style closely mirrors her whimsical childlike themes. Evans popularized these motifs in 3D art, adapting the nostalgic charm of Hummel’s illustrations into decoupage shadow boxes like this piece.
Influence: Evans’ works are recognized as a continuation of Hummel’s artistic tradition, bringing her iconic themes to new formats during the 20th century.
