Scarves & Wraps^The Met Store Johnson Three Children Silk Neckerchief

$24.92

An art scarf inspired by The Met collection.

This colorful neckerchief features William Henry Johnson’s (American, 1901–1970) triple portrait of fabulously dressed young ladies, whose vibrant hats inform the patterns on the border. After living in Europe for more than a decade, Johnson returned to the US in 1938 and created a number of images portraying Black subjects. Johnson’s aesthetic shifted dramatically over the course of his career—he was influenced by the likes of Expressionism, African sculpture, and folk art, as is evident in the varied styles of his works.
