Annie Lee's "Blue Monday" was one of her most iconic works, depicting a weary Black woman hunched over her washing basin on Monday morning. The painting resonated deeply with African American audiences who recognized this scene of domestic labor, drawing from Lee's own experiences as a single mother who worked multiple jobs to support her family. The artwork's emotional authenticity and relatable subject matter helped establish Lee as a significant voice in African American art.

Lee created "Blue Monday" while working as a chief clerk for the Chicago Northwestern Railroad, where she spent 23 years before pursuing art full-time. The painting's success led to widespread reproductions and helped launch her career as a professional artist, enabling her to open her own gallery and art company. Though she had no formal art training, Lee's ability to capture everyday moments in Black life with dignity and humor made "Blue Monday" and her subsequent works highly sought, particularly among middle-class African American collectors.

Lee's work was categorized as "Black Americana" because it documented and celebrated authentic aspects of African American life and culture, particularly from the mid-to-late 20th century. Her paintings captured the genuine experiences, traditions, and daily rituals of Black Americans, preserving these moments as historical artifacts that spoke to the Black community's struggles and resilience. Unlike earlier problematic "Americana" depictions of Black life, Lee's work presented these scenes from an insider's perspective, with dignity, understanding, and often touches of knowing humor that resonated deeply with Black audiences while also educating wider audiences about authentic African American experiences. 

This work of art is available framed or unframed. The framed version ships framed and ready to hang in a black 2-inch frame. Perfect for any fan of African American art or the late great Annie Lee.

Great little bag full of sunscreen for my grandson. Glad we had it to take it everywhere with us. A little pricey but he needs it so instead of taking bunches of bottles we had this.

Sunscreen is great, I would t recommend the chapstick
Style: Original
Sun Bum is hands down the best sunscreen I’ve ever used. It smells incredible, like a tropical vacation with that perfect coconut scent. It goes on smoothly, doesn’t leave you feeling sticky or greasy, and actually works! As long as I reapply every few hours, I don’t get burned, which is more than I can say for most other sunscreens I’ve tried. The face stick is good, goes on easily, but is a little greasy feeling. I do not like the chapstick, I can’t keep the taste of it out of my mouth and I feel like you have to put it on again and again.
