Artist Paula Henderson celebrates the legacy of professional baseball in a mirrored composition of White Sox legends and Negro League greats—who played their East-West All Star games at the old Comiskey Park.
In the lower panels, central figure(s) Jackie Robinson’s arm extends into the upper panels representing his ‘breaking of the color line’- ending segregation in the major leagues.
The upper panels reflect change over decades in its patterning of the diversity of White Sox ‘greats’.
