Notable Works
Self-Portrait II
Self-taught painter Horace Pippin once said that his time served in WWI โbrought out all the art in me.โ In fact, he took up art to rehabilitate his arm after being shot in battle. In the 1930s, he began painting on stretched fabric and often revisited themes related to the war. As his career continued, he painted landscapes, as well as political and biblical themes. His work often touched on themes revolving around slavery and racial discrimination.
In 1947, he became the first African American artist to be the subject of a monograph. Today, his paintings can be found in private and public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Barnes Foundation, and the Phillips Collection.
