Elizabeth Catlett’s 1976 lithograph, "Lovey Twice," features two Black women’s profiles. The woman on the left faces the viewer, while the woman on the right looks off to the side. The print's background is a textured pattern of light and dark, suggesting a fragmented, uncertain environment. Catlett, known for her powerful depictions of Black identity and struggle, used this print to celebrate Black beauty and resilience. “Lovey Twice” is a striking example of Catlett’s expressive style and her commitment to social justice.
