Art Can Be Hidden From Most…

(“The Hunted Slave in the Dismal Swamp”, 1865. Engraving by C.G. Lewis after an 1861 painting by Richard Andsell (1815-1885). From the moorland Spingam Research Center at Howard University, Washington, D.C)

Because they were slaves, many Africans brought to the United States were not allowed to express themselves artistically. So it took a long time before Black people in the US were able to be recognised as artists…

This is an interesting story…
