Description
John Henry, the Steel Drivin' Man
Poser Pro 2012, PhotoShop
A MAN AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A MAN. John Henry is a symbol of physical strength and endurance, of exploited labor, of the dignity of a human being against the degradations of the machine age, and of racial pride and solidarity. During World War II his image was used in U.S. government propaganda as a symbol of social tolerance and diversity.
