Romare Bearden The Block Notecards

Though he was born in North Carolina, artist Romare Bearden spent formative time in Harlem as a child, and in 1940, he established a studio in the same West 125th Street building as the artist Jacob Lawrence.


This notecard set features the six panels that make up Bearden's The Block (1971) which each represents an aspect of local life, from the barbershop to the corner store.
