“Calendar: Twelve American Women, 1942”

153
"Among the featured women in this little-known but compelling work are Mary McLeod Bethune, Marian Anderson, Sue Bailey Thurman (see above), Mary Church Terrell, and more, each illustrated with a portrait. The December page contains a self-portrait and biography of Jones, crediting her as the artist for all 12 portraits as well as the cover (a detail adapted from her mural "Light" at Howard University)."—https://catalogue.swanngalleries.com/Lots/auction-lot/(ART)-Loïs-Mailou-Jones-artist-Calendar-Twelve-American-Wome?saleno=2562&lotNo=53&refNo=771750
