Emilio Raya A Much Larger Significance Value can be place on anything from such trivial things as a kiss, to monumental occasions such as the birth of a child. These are what truly have value, not extravagant houses nor luxury sport cars. Just as the a fore mentioned events can have a value put on them, so can art. This leads me to the incredible work of one Henry Ossawa Tanner. Actually, it leads me more to one of his more elaborate paintings, The Banjo Lesson . This painting can be valued in three very distinct ways. The first of which would be formalism. Meaning the painting is truly beautiful. The magnificence of his work can be seen with each subtle brush stroke, each carefully crafted detail. His painting is truly beautiful, therefore it perfectly falls under the category of formalism. Yet, The Banjo Lesson has more than one specific worth. Which would only seem logical since Henry Osswa Tanners' skill is truly remarkable. Expressivism, being the second type of "value" that can be place on The Banjo Lesson .

Lieutenant Henry Ossian Flipper, U.S. Army 1856-1940 Henry Ossian Flipper was born in Thomasville, Georgia, on March 21, 1856, into slavery and spent his formative years in Georgia. Following the Civil War, he attended the American Missionary Association Schools in his home state. In 1873 Flipper was appointed to the U.S. Military Academy, and in 1877 he became the first African-American to graduate from the institution. He was commissioned a second lieutenant and assigned to the 10th Cavalry. From 1878 until 1880 Lieutenant Flipper served on frontier duty in various installations in the southwest, including Fort Sill, Oklahoma. His duties included scouting, as well as serving as post engineer surveyor and construction supervisor, post adjutant, acting assistant and post quartermaster, and commissary officer. In 1881 Lieutenant Flipper's commanding officer accused him of "embezzling funds and of conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman." As a result of these charges, he was court-martialed. He was acquitted of the embezzlement charge but was found guilty, by general court martial, of conduct unbecoming an officer. On June 30, 1882, he was dismissed from the Army as required by this conviction. As a civilian, Henry Flipper went on to distinguish himself in a variety of governmental and private engineering positions. These included serving as surveyor, civil and military engineer, author, translator, special agent of the Justice Department, special assistant to the Secretary of the Interior with the Alaskan Engineering Commission, aide to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, as well as an authority on Mexican land and mining law.
