Billie Holiday Strange Tree by O Yemi Tubi (MOYAT) Oil on canvas 2024 Artwork Signed
This painting “Billie Holiday Strange Fruit” was influenced by the life of Billie Holiday and the song that propelled her to fame – “Strange Fruit” originated from a poem about lynching by Abel Meeropol which is an influential anthem of the civil rights movement.
In the bad old days of American history, Billie Holiday rose to fame as an award-winning jazz singer. Her life was pricked with many thorns – the thorns of her turbulent childhood, the thorns of racial injustice against African Americans and her personal thorns of drug abuse that pricked her to death and brought an end to her rosy and successful music career prematurely
