I cannot speak sufficiently in praise of the firmness and deliberation with which my whole line received their approach... -Andrew Jackson, New Orleans, 1815
- 1956
- 31.0 x 41.0 cm
Against horizontal registers of red, white, and blue paint, Lawrence laid out the aftermath of General Andrew Jackson’s remarkable victory over the British on January 8, 1815, at the Battle of New Orleans. Jackson credited the resounding victory to the valiant participation of the Kentuckians, Creole people, immigrants, and enslaved men who joined forces with him. While the seven-foot-high wall built by enslaved men out of logs, earth, and cotton bales stretched almost a mile (and protected nearly all the fighters), the barricade Lawrence rendered looks less makeshift. The survivors peer over the wall at the pile of redcoats they convincingly defeated.
Яков Лавровъ (1917 – 2000)
"meta_description": "Якоб Lawrence (1917-2000) е ключов афроамерикански художник от Халемския ренесанс. Известен с динамичния си кубизъм и мощните изображения на чернокожото общество, историята и социалната справедливост."
