Another thank you going out to one of my fabulous #FineArtAmerica clients, this from Bowie, Maryland (my old stomping grounds when I was a kid!) for their 10/19 purchase of a 24" x 16" luster photo paper print of Patterns of Shadow and Light. Enjoy!!!!!

Meet #DangerfieldNewby (1815 – October 16, 1859), the real #DjangoUnchained! He was the oldest of #JohnBrownsRaiders, one of five black raiders, and the first of his men to die at #HarpersFerry, Virginia. Dangerfield had been freed by his white father, but he had a wife and seven children held in slavery in Warrenton, Virginia. His wife's master had told him that for the sum of $1,500 he could buy his wife and his youngest baby, who had just started to crawl. Dangerfield earned that amount of money and went back to Warrenton to purchase his wife and baby, only to have his wife's master raise the price. The free black man then joined John Brown in the hope of freeing not only his wife and youngest baby, but his entire family.
