African-American artist Richard Yarde (1939-2011) is considered one of the most accomplished American watercolorists of his generation. His work is found in numerous public collections, including MoMA, Studio Museum of Harlem, Smithsonian Institution, and the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston), among others. When discussing his watercolor studies of musicians and dancers at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem, Yarde stated: "The Savoy became a source of creativity, joy, and strength to me, which I want to share and honor." Mount Holyoke College Art Museum, in 1982, presented a travelling exhibition "Savoy: An Installation by Richard Yarde," which was also shown in San Diego, Baltimore, and The Studio Museum, Harlem.
