This mural I like

   This mural that I like is by Marion Greenwood. It was repainted in 1972 at the University of Tennessee  but was originally commissioned in 1954. Because of the disapproval of African American students on how a slave was depicted in the mural it was vandalized in May of 1970.

    In this mural maroon was able to strongly depict Tennessee history with strong vibrant colors and dynamic figures. From the history of the blues, religion, and good old country music she was able to compose all the figures in a space and with just the right composition so it could keep your eyes moving throughout the entire image.

   I personally really like the image. I love how she's able to depict the states history with not just the figures but with the colors as well. I also like how she was able to fit so much history in one space. Also I must admit my decision is quite biased considering half of my family is from the south
