    A powerful piece of American history, now wearable. This tee features Employment of Negroes in Agriculture (1934) by Earle Wilton Richardson—an African American artist whose work captured both the dignity and harsh reality of Black life in the early 20th century United States.

    Painted during the Great Depression, this piece honors Black farm workers in the South, set against the stark beauty of cotton fields. It’s a striking composition of labor, resistance, and resilience—rendered in warm tones and bold forms.

    Printed on demand, ethically made, and historically grounded. Wear it as a statement, a tribute, or simply because it looks phenomenal with jeans and boots.

    Best for:
    Art history nerds, students of Black history, lovers of WPA-era artwork, and anyone who appreciates their fashion with a bit of cultural weight.

    Meet your new favorite tee: it’s eco-friendly, organic, and chic. Made from 100% organic cotton, it’s soft like a cloud but sturdy enough for all your mid-season adventures. Topped with a classic fit, this t-shirt is the perfect choice.
