Booker T. Washington Tribute Sculpture By Keith Mallett

Born into slavery, Booker T. Washington was a distinguished educator, author, and advisor to presidents, including Theodore Roosevelt. He rose to prominence as the leading advocate for vocational education for African Americans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Unlike others at the time, Mr. Washington believed in self-help, education and economic empowerment over immediate civil rights, beliefs which he conveyed in his famous speech remembered as the Atlanta Compromise. He felt that through personal achievements, equal rights would follow. Now, acclaimed artist Keith Mallett pays tribute to the legacy of this influential figure with the Booker T. Washington Tribute Sculpture, a first-ever available exclusively from The Hamilton Collection.

Working in partnership with Mr. Mallett, talented artisans carefully handcraft this exceptional commemorative of artist's resin, then meticulously hand-paint every inch with a rich blend of matte, metallic and glossy hues. Measuring 11 inches tall, this sculpture solemnly honors the impactful leader with great attention to detail as he stands atop a granite-like pedestal base, highlighted with four powerful archival photos and four quotes. A wonderful way to honor a gentleman who was gifted with courage, foresight and judgment, this Booker T. Washington collectible also makes a poignant, inspirational gift. Limited release; intense demand is expected, so don't wait. Order now!
