About the Item

NO PLACE LIKE HOME is a hand drawn, limited edition lithograph(not a photo reproduction or digital print) by the African American artist Louis Delsarte printed using hand lithography techniques on archival Arches paper 100% acid free. NO PLACE LIKE HOME is a colorful, dream-like interior scene portraying a Black family gathering to enjoy a meal together at the dinner table. NO PLACE LIKE HOME is a lively and visually engaging home kitchen setting; very nostalgic with its vintage white appliances, red checkered tablecloth, cooking pots, and light streaming through the window. The family members are together exchanging warm glances of affection and good-humored conversation around the kitchen table as the meal is served. NO PLACE LIKE HOME bursts with joyful colors expressed using watercolor effects in shades of yellow, orange, tan, blue, red, magenta, hot pink, light blue, turquoise, aqua, green, and accents of black and white.

Delsarte (b. 1944-2020) is an American artist of African and French ancestry known for what critics have referred to as his “illusionist” style. He is a painter, draftsman, muralist, printmaker, and poet. While growing up in New York City, Delsarte was surrounded by music including jazz, opera, musicals, and the blues. His parents were friends with artists and entertainers from the Harlem Renaissance like Lena Horne, Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Langston Hughes. These influences along with his knowledge and interest in African American history and world culture have served as an inspiration for his art. ​ Delsarte attended Wingate high school in Brooklyn, NY, earned his Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts at New York’s Pratt Institute, and obtained a Masters Degree in Fine Arts at the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ. Delsarte also received certification in Fine Arts Education from Brooklyn College in New York City. During his formative years, he attended art classes at the Brooklyn Museum and the Hans Hoffman School of Art. Delsarte has taught painting and drawing at numerous colleges and universities over the past 42 years. Currently, he is an Associate Professor in Arts and Humanities at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia. Delsarte’s career as an artist for the past 50 years has complemented his career as an educator. Delsarte’s work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions at museums and galleries throughout the United States including the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York, the California African-American Museum, the Camille Hanks Cosby Museum at Spelman College in Atlanta, Georgia and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington DC. Delsarte’s work is in numerous public collections including the Carlos Museum at Emory University in Atlanta and the National Gallery of Art in Bermuda. Delsarte has been commissioned to complete several important mural projects. In January 2010, Delsarte’s mural, Dreams, Visions and Change, The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Mural was dedicated at Peace Plaza in Atlanta, Georgia. The 129 ft. mural, commissioned by the city of Atlanta celebrates the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

BACKYARD Signed Lithograph, Black Couple, African American Heritage, Quilts
By James Denmark
Located in Union City, NJ
BACKYARD by the artist James Denmark is an original hand drawn, limited edition lithograph printed on archival Somerset paper, 100% acid free using traditional hand lithography techniques. BACKYARD is one of Denmark's colorful collage compositions of everyday African American life - a soulful Southern country folk scene featuring a standing woman wearing a red orange skirt, multicolored floral print top, and dark indigo print head wrap; her male companion dressed in blue denim jeans, dark indigo print shirt and denim hat sitting in the backyard as the patchwork quilts flutter on the clothesline. Vivid coloration and textures captivate the eye with variety - deep violet, reds, fiery orange, touches of yellow, dark black and shades of blue - a very strong impression and fine example of hand lithography!
