Elizabeth Catlett was a sculptor and artist who explored the black experience through her works. This piece, “Glory,” depicts Glory Van Scott, a famed dancer and cousin to Emmett Till. Abigail Solon, student curator, describes the meaning behind Catlett’s art choices: “Taking advantage of the bronze sheen, Catlett depicts Glory as noble and heroic."
