Summary
editDescription | Picture of Robert Colescott's painting George Washington Carver Crossing the Delaware: Page from an American History Textbook (1975) at the New Museum in New York, in 2022. A large acrylic painting of several African American figures posing in a boat crossing the Delaware River. The central figure, George Washington Carver, is standing in a pose similar to George Washington's pose in Emanuel Leutze's painting Washington Crossing the Delaware (1851). The figures are rendered using stereotypical imagery derived from 19th and early 20th century racist depictions of Black people, Colescott's signature style of reappropriation, and include characters like the Mammy stereotype. |
