A Portrait of Mother and Child by Jerry Taliaferro

Black, indeed, is beautiful. The above portrait is one of photographer Jerry Taliaferro's captures. Taliaferro was born in Brownsville, Tennessee. He joined the army and later entered the United States Academy at West Point. His photo works was discovered while stationed in Germany.

I can imagine how this amazing portrait of mother and child brings back memories of the origin of true black women and as a tribute to our mothers, wives, sisters and daughters.
