Warsaw Cut Glass

This painting features the bold, hand-painted wall sign of Warsaw Cut Glass Company in Warsaw, Indiana, rendered with crisp lettering against richly textured green brick. The aged paint, subtle cracks, and layered brickwork reveal the passage of time, giving the sign a sense of permanence and pride. By filling the frame with the typography and surface details, the piece elevates a functional advertisement into a graphic landmark. It celebrates local industry and craftsmanship, honoring a business whose name is quite literally built into the fabric of the town.
