Holding the Line at All Hazards, William Gilbert Gaul, oil on canvas
This relief print created with black ink on white paper represents a Black woman at the center of the composition. Her face and body are angled toward the lower left corner of the sheet, and she wears a necklace which she touches with her proper right hand. She also wears a headdress in a pattern of triangles that expands into a pattern of foliage.
A black woman and girl stand within a store entryway, facing a display window filled with white child mannequins. The girl is looking and pointing at the display, while the woman, her arm around the girl, is looking downward.
