Dressing for the Carnival
Winslow Homer, 1877
This Reconstruction-era painting sought to celebrate the endurance and legacy of African-American culture. Borrowing elements from a Christmas celebration known as Jonkonnu, this piece depicts Independence Day festivities and strives to communicate the hope for freedom and independence that Black Americans sought.
