Collection: Horace Pippin

Horace Pippin (1888-1946) was an American painter associated with the Harlem Renaissance and the American Folk Art movement. Pippin's works were characterized by their use of bold colors and strong lines to convey a sense of narrative and emotion. He was particularly interested in portraying the lives of African Americans, both past and present, and his works often depicted scenes of everyday life and history. Pippin was a self-taught artist who overcame physical disabilities and racial barriers to become one of the most celebrated African American painters of his time. Today, Pippin's works are celebrated for their beauty and their contribution to the development of American art. Some of his most famous works include "The End of the War: Starting Home" and "Supper Time."
