In yesterday’s Inauguration ceremonies, First Lady Dr. Jill Biden selected Robert S. Duncanson’s Landscape with Rainbow (1859), on loan from @americanart, as the Inaugural Gift displayed in the U.S. Capitol (check out our stories to see). Among the first African American artists to achieve national and international acclaim, Duncanson was hailed in the 19th century as the “best landscape painter in the West.” ⁠

A similar work by Duncanson was recently acquired for the Brooklyn Museum collection through a generous gift by Charlynn and Warren Goins in honor of the Council for African American Art. Painted in the tumultuous years preceding the Civil War, this classically-inspired pastoral scene presents an Arcadian vision of the American landscape. A deliberate and symbolic choice on the part of the new administration, Duncanson’s imagery provides a resounding message of renewal, unity, and hope. ⁠
