Painting
Robert Lee MacCameron was celebrated in Europe and the United States for his insightful portraits. He moved to London in 1888, where he worked as an illustrator, before going to Paris to study at the École des Beaux-Arts. There, he studied with the major artists of the day, including Jean-Léon Gérôme and James McNeil Whistler. His portrait commissions ranged from European nobility to prominent American politicians, including Presidents McKinley and Taft. In addition, MacCameron painted scenes and portraits of the diverse ethnic mix that populated American cities at the turn of the century.

Painting
In 1942-43, a mural competition was held for the newly built Recorder of Deeds Building in Washington, D.C. The topic was "The Contribution of the Negro to the American Nation." Hale Woodruff submitted this imagined grouping of Frederick Douglass, President Lincoln, and members of Lincoln's cabinet. While Woodruff did not win the competition, his mural study is a dramatic reminder of the alliance of two of America's most courageous leaders, Lincoln and Douglass, during a period that threatened to destroy the American union.
While Douglass never, in reality, met with Lincoln's cabinet, he did meet with Lincoln and repeatedly urged the president to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. Woodruff stressed the significance of Douglass's role by appropriating the historical image engraved by Ritchie and adding an animated Douglass and the colorful American flag.
