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].
