Negro Poet (Portrait of Maxwell Nicy Hayson)
Head is attached to a painted plaster base. This is a highly stylized and intricate adaptation. Great attention to detail has been paid to the waviness of the hair, as well as the rendering of the ears. The subject appears to have a pronounced forehead and deep set eyes. The pupils of the eyes have been bored out to a hole, which actually makes them look more realistic. Finely detailed nose and lips, as well as sunken cheekbones and a somewhat cleft chin make this gentleman an exquisite piece of sculpture. There is a neck included, as well, which comes to a point in the front, giving the sculpture somewhat of a "pedestal" look.

Crisis Advertisement 1927 This item is an advertisement page published in the advertiser section of The Crisis magazine. This issue was published in February of 1927, it is The Crisis volume 33, number 4. This specific issue was published towards the middle of the Harlem Renaissance as the Harlem Renaissance continued through the mid 1930s. In this advertisement section there are 5 postings from colleges and universities. These colleges and universities now have courses and curriculums closer to what we have today, moving away from the original training and industrial schools. The posting from Virginia Union University states that it offers curriculum in departments such as theological, teachers' college, premedical, law, and commercial. The North Carolina College for Negroes posting includes information about courses in liberal arts, science, commerce, and music. This shows a clear change in universities and colleges from before the Harlem Renaissance to now at the middle of the Harlem Renaissance.
