The Voyage of Life: Manhood by Thomas Cole

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/52452-voyage-life-manhood

Cole’s renowned four-part series traces the journey of an archetypal hero along the „River of Life.“ Confidently assuming control of his destiny and oblivious to the dangers that await him, the voyager boldly strives to reach an aerial castle, emblematic of the daydreams of „Youth“ and its aspirations for glory and fame. As the traveler approaches his goal, the ever-more-turbulent stream deviates from its course and relentlessly carries him toward the next picture in the series, where nature’s fury, evil demons, and self-doubt will threaten his very existence.

Into Bondage by Aaron Douglas

https://www.nga.gov/artworks/166444-bondage

We glimpse the harrowing drama unfolding in this painting, as if we are crouching by the roots of the tropical foliage and peering through a space between the leaves. Our focus is on the anonymous silhouettes of men and women, their shackles more prominent than their features.
Toronto, 2009: 178, repro., 363. 2010 Barson, Tanya.
