The Power of Music By: William Sidney Mount-artwork prints

The Power of Music artwork print is available on paper of variety of sizes.
Set in rural Long Island before the Civil War, Mount's complex painting presents an African American laborer listening intently to a fiddle tune enjoyed by white men. While a love of music unites the figures in a bond of shared humanity, the two races occupy different spaces--one inside, one outside, both separated by a barn door--effectively symbolizing the pronounced divisions in America at the time. Print sizes available 11"x17", 18"x24", 24"x 36"
