A famous civil rights moment, updated; source of inspiration on view at Rockwell museum
You may have already seen a graphic artist’s mashup of American politics in 1964 and 2020, featuring both Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and the shadow of a little girl named Ruby Bridges.
In the image Bria Goeller recently created, Harris strides down a sidewalk, work satchel in hand. Instead of her own shadow, the wall behind her shows a silhouette of Bridges, the girl made famous by a painting Norman Rockwell created for Look magazine.
