Description from the seller

Important painting attributed to Laurent Casimir (1928–1990), iconic figure of Haitian naive painting of the 20th century.

This work depicts a particularly lively market scene, emblematic of the artist, in a dense and rhythmic composition bringing together a multitude of stylized figures.

The dominant warm tones — reds, oranges and yellows — give the whole piece a strong visual presence and an energy characteristic of Casimir's work during the second half of the 20th century.

The painting exhibits rich narrative with many details typical of Haitian daily life.
