Bring inspiration and creativity into your space with the Afro Royalty Framed Canvas, a powerful portrait from Howard Goodley’s evocative Train Ride Through His Eyes collection. This striking matte canvas captures the grace, stillness, and quiet strength of a woman lost in her thoughts during a New York City train ride.
Rendered in Goodley’s signature cross-hatching and sketched with deep emotion, Afro Royalty evokes a sense of inner calm and unapologetic presence. Her soft expression and poised demeanor offer a gentle reminder that resilience doesn’t always need to roar. Whether you hang it above your desk, in your reading corner, or as part of a larger gallery wall, this piece invites pause, perspective, and presence.
Printed on premium matte canvas and finished with your choice of white, black, or espresso wooden frame, this canvas speaks volumes in any room. It’s more than wall art — it’s a quiet anthem of dignity, heritage, and the sacredness of self-reflection.
Each framed canvas is a celebration of everyday Black womanhood — not glamorized or staged, but seen in full grace and power through the eyes of an artist who valued the authenticity of the ride and those who rode beside him.
