An oil painting that depicts the head and bare, right arm of a brown-skinned man who appers to emerge from behind an American flag. The flag is turned on its side so that the stripes are vertical, and the stars are on the right. The man grasps one of the stripes of the flag in his fist. In this way, the man seems to be imprisoned by the American flag, and is trying to break free.
