An important catalog and overview of the five-decade career of Jacob Lawrence:
“This major book celebrates the creative genius of Jacob Lawrence. It is the most comprehensive survey ever made of his work and traces his development as an artist as well as places his work within the traditions of American modernism ... The paintings reproduced here illustrate a broad array of moods and subjects. Representing each of the artist’s significant periods, they range from fond portraits of Harlem street life in the 1930s to angry depictions of racial injustice during the 1960s.
