Well, this hasn't gone as planned. I'm still alive, but probably moving on to some place where the skies are blue.

Happy Birthday #HenryOssawaTanner
June 21, 1859 – May 25, 1937

Henry was born to free parents, but left for Paris in 1891 to escape racism. He loved it there, not only because he had immense opportunity, but because he was simply referred to as Monsieur Tanner, instead of “The Negro Painter” as he was called in the US. Even upon his death, the American newspaper the New York Herald Tribune headline read: "Henry Tanner, 77 Dies In Paris; was American Negro Painter".

This is one of my favorite paintings of Henry Owassa Tanner at the @DMArtCenter . I love his treatment of light in all his paintings. . .it's magical! This is not his only painting where he portrays Divinity as a beam of Light.
