Jacob Lawrence (American, 1917–2000)

In 1942, twenty-five-year-old Lawrence gained national recognition when the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the Phillips Collection, Washington, D.C., shared the acquisition of his sixty-panel Migration of the Negro series and sent it on a fifteen-venue tour across the United States. Later that year, the Met purchased its first work by the artist, “Pool Parlor,” a prizewinner in "The Artists for Victory" competition. ‪#‎BlackHistoryMonth‬
