Description
Frederick Douglas was a runaway slave and that accomplishment was an uphill battle. In this painting the viewer sees a slave chased by a slave catcher and shot at by another in a boat on the sea. She is carrying a precious cargo, the future, invisible to the viewer, but precious enough to risk her life. The drama displayed here epitomizes Douglas' "Quest For Freedom" of his people just as he was fortunate enough to acquire his freedom from slavery. The ensuing portrait that emanates from this drama reveals a portrait of Frederick Douglas, the great emancipator. � David G. Wilson
