Silhouetted figures dance, preach and play horns in a dusky field

Aaron Douglas (1899–1979) was the leading visual artist of the Harlem Renaissance and the first African American to receive national recognition in fine art. His bold, geometric, silhouetted figures — influenced by Egyptian art, African sculpture, and Art Deco — created a new visual language for Black American identity and experience that proved profoundly influential in American cultural history.
