Vintage Haitian Landscape Painting - Original Handpainted Caribbean Folk Art - 8x10
Visual surprise is natural in the Caribbean; it comes with the landscape and when faced with its beauty, the sigh of History dissolves. Derek Walcott
{HISTORY}
Handpainted in Haiti by the artist, Emmanuel, this original 8x10 acrylic folk art landscape features a tropical scene of islanders and outbuildings. As bright and colorful as the Caribbean itself, this scene is painted on cotton cloth and stretched over a handmade wood frame. Colorful, expressive and sunny in style this painting acts like a little ray of sunshine wherever you choose to hang it. The arts scene in Haiti is very active, and although we couldn't find any information about this specific artist, it is possible that he might have worked with the tourist trade in Haiti, sharing the beauty of the culture with visitors to the island.
