Twenty-five paintings and supporting historical and archival information contextualize Robert Duncanson as not only a gifted landscapist but also a committed abolitionist. Imbedded in the social networks of the antislavery movement, he was a supporter of the Underground Railroad. Duncanson’s systematic travels in the South and Eastern seaboard to paint identifiable landmarks along established pathways to freedom make his paintings political vehicles, as well as some of the most accomplished landscapes in American art.
