Content: Third quarter, 17th century. Metropolitan Museum of Art. On January 16, 1969, ten paintings were defaced in response to the Harlem on My Mind exhibit. Small "H's" (as large as five inches tall) were scratched mostly into varnish covering the paintings, but in one case, into the actual pigments. None went through the canvases, and all paintings were successfully repaired. The vandal (s) weren't caught, and BECC denounced the vandalism. List of defaced works
