メトロポリタン美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (メトロポリタン美術館Instagram)「📣 📣 If you've been hankering for some #goodnews, boy do we have it—one of Jacob Lawrence's missing panels from his "Struggle" series has been found!⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Here’s the story: A local New Yorker had seen a #JacobLawrence painting in the home of her neighbors for years. After visiting "Jacob Lawrence: The American Struggle" at The Met, she had a hunch that their painting was part of the series and encouraged the owners to contact the Museum—a true testament to the power of community!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ “The painting has been hanging in my living room for 60 years untouched,” said one of the owners, a longtime lover of Lawrence's work. "I felt I owed it both to the artist and The Met to allow them to show the painting."⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Thought missing for decades, panel 16 depicts Shays' Rebellion, the uprising of struggling farmers in Massachusetts led by Revolutionary War veteran Daniel Shays. It was titled by Lawrence: "There are combustibles in every State, which a spark might set fire to. —Washington, 26 December 1786."⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Starting tomorrow, panel 16 will be on view for the final two weeks of the exhibition at The Met before joining the touring show, organized by the @peabodyessex, for presentations in Birmingham, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., through next fall.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Read more about this (amazing) reunion story at the link in bio.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ #MetJacobLawrence⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ 🎨 Jacob Lawrence, (American, 1917–2000).
