Douglas, Graduate of
School of Fine Arts,
Lauded for Drawings

Aaron Douglas, a graduate of the
School of Fine Arts, has received lib-
eral praise for eight symbolic draw-
ings which he designed for "God's
Trombones," a book by James Wel-
don Johnson. The Survey Graphic
for August, 1927, in reviewing the
book, declares that Douglas' draw-
ings considerably enhance the value
of the work, and are a "significant
contribution to contemporary Amer-
ican art."

Mr. Douglas was graduated from the School of Fine Arts in 1924 [sic].
