Harriet Tubman’s striking, resolute figure stands at attention in this painting by William H. Johnson (American, 1901-1970), part of his 1945 Fighters for Freedom series. The American artist had returned to the United States from Scandinavia only a few years earlier, motivated by the threat of war and a need to paint the lives and histories of black Americans. He created numerous powerful scenes, such as the painting in this 500-piece jigsaw puzzle.
