Born in Illinois, Nall’s most known work is his painting "Lincoln Speaks to Freedmen on the Steps of the Capital at Richmond" (1963),[1][2][3] which was commissioned by the state of Illinois in honor of the 100th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation.[4][5] LifeGus Nall was an African-American painter born in Chicago, Illinois in 1919. He was married to Thelma Nall at the age of twenty-one. Nall was a notable artist during the 1950s and 60s, known for his modernist representation of African Americans. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and as well as in Paris. During his life, he was featured in Art Gallery Magazine (1968, "The Afro-American Issue”)[6] as well as Carol Myers' Black Power in the Arts.[3] WorkNall’s work consisted of elongated human figures influenced by Cubist and Expressionist styles of painting, and African art.[7] His art most often portrays representations of African Americans. He was influenced by Archibald Motley and Eldzier Cortor, who were fellow artists from Chicago. Nall’s work allowed him to become a role model to fellow painters as well as those interested in his life as an artist. Nall had an inspiring effect on the life of fellow artist and writer Clarence Major who looked up to him.[7] His painting "Lincoln Speaks to Freedmen on the Steps of the Capital at Richmond" (1963) is on permanent exhibit in the DuSable Museum of African American History.[4] Gallery{{Gallery|title=Gus Nall’s Paintings |width=160 | height=170 |align=center |footer= |File: Gus Nall Untitled 1950.jpg |alt1= Gus Nall Painting |"Untitled" (1950) by Gus Nall |File:Offering-Fruit.jpg |alt2= Gus Nall Painting |"Offering Fruit" by Gus Nall |File: Lincoln Speaks to Freedmen on the Steps of the Capital at Richmond.jpg |alt3=Gus Nall painting |"Lincoln Speaks to Freedmen on the Steps of the Capital at Richmond" by Gus Nall }} References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.askart.com/artist/Gus_Nall/11057060/Gus_Nall.aspx#|title=Gus Nall|publisher=}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Nall, Gus}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ancestry.com/1940-census/usa/Illinois/Gus-Nall_50p4yy|title=Gus Nall in the 1940 Census|publisher=}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.invaluable.co.uk/auction-lot/gus-nall,-african-american-20th-c.-,-offering-f-170-c-151b36df0e|title=Gus Nall, (African-American; 20th C.), Offering Fruit, Oil o|work=Invaluable.com}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.civilwarinart.org/items/show/142|title=The Civil War in Art : Teaching & Learning Through Chicago Collections - Lincoln Speaks to Freedmen on the Steps of the Capital at Richmond|publisher=}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.civilwarinart.org/exhibits/show/emansmeanfreedom/introduction/art-and-african-american-histo|title=The Civil War in Art : Teaching & Learning Through Chicago Collections - Emancipation and the Meaning of Freedom : Art and African American History|publisher=}} 6. ^http://aavad.com/artistlist.cfm?letter=n 7. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=zDV5Phz_vQoC&pg=PA17&lpg=PA17&dq=gus+nall+life&source=bl&ots=bIrwRRhGZa&sig=b0MdQDvDLguazB_npOs5uXHt_B4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi_97yk9MPLAhXItoMKHdZTDOsQ6AEIHzAB#v=onepage&q=gus%20nall%20life&f=false|title=The Art and Life of Clarence Major|publisher=}} 5 : 1919 births|1995 deaths|African-American artists|American painters|African-American painters |
