拍品专文

Sam Doyle opened his “Out Door Art Gallery” in his yard on St. Helena Island, South Carolina, in the late 1960s. His paintings depicted people from within his Gullah community, as well as important political and social figures. This work shows midwife Lucinda Ladsen, Doyle's great-grandmother, who was the first African-American midwife on Saint Helena Island.
