Lawrence on his art I don't think in terms of history about that series. I think in terms of contemporary life. It was such a part of me that I didn't think of something outside. It was like I was doing a portrait of something. If it was a portrait, it was a portrait of myself, a portrait of my family, a portrait of my peers. Jacob Lawrence (1917-2000) Source: http://www.whitney.org/jacoblawrence/art/migration_series.html
