Dmitry Posted December 18, 2005 Report Posted December 18, 2005 I'm not a fan of posthumous portraits, but this looks fine. Looks like it was drawn from a photograph. Quote
Kalo Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 Wein's extensive collection of contemporary and 20th Century African-American Art is currently on display at the Boston University Art Gallery. This is just down the street from me and I still haven't checked it out. Thanks for the reminder. Quote
