Supper Time 1940

"Supper Time" is a 1940 painting by Horace Pippin, a self-taught American artist. The painting depicts a simple, domestic scene of a family gathered for dinner. The composition is visually appealing, emphasizing the warmth and intimacy of the meal. Pippin's unique style is evident in the bold outlines and flat colors, which create a powerful sense of realism. The painting, which is thought to be based on Pippin's own family, offers a glimpse into the everyday life of African Americans in the early 20th century.
