Description

Hidden Treasures on the Brick Road 10003 270th St NW, Stanwood, WA 98292 Open: Fridays 1pm - 4pm & Saturdays 1pm - 6pm Length (inches): 9.00 Width (inches): 1.00 Height (inches): 11.50 This expressive pencil reproduction, titled “Big Sister” by renowned African American artist Samella Lewis, captures a tender portrait of sisterly care and resilience. Originally drawn in 1976 and published by Contemporary Crafts, Inc. in 1977, this authorized limited-edition piece (numbered 35/92) depicts a young girl carrying her baby sibling, rendered with quiet dignity and emotional depth. Lewis, often called the “Godmother of African American Art,” was celebrated not only as an artist but as a historian and curator who helped document and elevate Black visual expression throughout the 20th century. Her works are represented in major collections including the Smithsonian and the Museum of African American Art in Los Angeles. Professionally framed in a dark green wood frame with a wide black matte, this piece remains in excellent vintage condition, with no fading or visible damage.
