About the Work

Kadir Nelson celebrates the 2020 Presidential Election with a glowing painting of a proud young girl holding an American flag. Her beautiful crown is adorned with a blue iris (a symbol of hope and faith) and her sleeves are rolled up, a sweet reminder of the importance of social and political movements, and the hard work necessary to maintain liberty, justice, and equality for all people.
