Mural Of Frederick Douglass To Be Painted By Michael Rosato In Talbot County

Michael Rosato is a self-taught painter, a muralist of over 30 years, but he describes himself as a storyteller. “I didn’t go to art school, I’m self-taught,” he said. “I’m a storyteller. I like anything that has the triumph of the human spirit.” Rosato’s mural of Harriet Tubman in Cambridge, Maryland has gained international recognition. Just a few miles away, a fifth-generation family member of Frederick Douglass wanted a mural to commemorate him.
