They are a stunning tribute to what may have been the most hated and now loved man of the 20th century. I feel sorry for youth of today who have no real reference for who he was in his prime. These are just a couple - go to YouTube to see more:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Click here to buy posters and reproductions. Sumter County Gallery of Art. Charleston, SC 2915 0.

QUASHIE ART: March 2012
http://quashieart.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
