Wade in the Water II wooden and listening to a gramophoneA wooden footbridge stretches across a slow country creek, and the whole church is standing on it. Women in white, men in dark suits, parasols tilted against the morning light. Below them, waist deep in the water, the minister lifts his hand while a candidate waits to go under. This is Sunday morning in the rural South, and Ted Ellis painted it the way it was lived. Wade in the Water II holds a moment that generations of Black families know by heart.
