Artist's Description

This was inspired by a black and white photograph I saw of the men on a Harlem, N.Y. rooftop while they were at a party. I was impressed by the names and by the dignity of their countenance. Langston Hughes, Charles S. Johnson, E. Franklin Frazier, Rudolph Fisher and Hubert Delany overlooking St. Nicholas Avenue in Harlem in the 1920s. Photo via the Schomburg Center. I saw a postcard of the photo in college and decided to work on a largescale painting that took a few years to complete.
