Black Prophet, also known as The African, belongs to a significant group of portraits completed by Winold Reiss for Harlem: Mecca of the New Negro, a special 1925 issue of the journal Survey Graphic celebrating Harlem’s rising urban culture. The sitters were chosen by Alain Locke and other leaders of the New Negro movement, who sought to expand and dignify the image of black Americans.

Beaded Crown (Ade) of Onijagbo Obasoro Alowolodu, Ogoga of Ikere 1890-1928 The ultimate symbol of Yoruba kingship is the bead-embroidered crown. All crowns are surmounted by an okin, the royal bird, and represent the face of Oduduwa, the creator-god who became the first king of Ife. The beaded veil that covers the face of the wearer depersonalizes the oba, emphasizing his office, while protecting onlookers from the danger of casting their eyes directly on the awesome radiance of a divine king.
