Overhead, a radiant spider's web hangs like a portal between realms, a lone spider descending its thread toward a still, glowing lagoon. Below, a fisherman rests beneath fruit-laden trees, caught in a quiet moment suspended between the earthly and the otherworldly. Byron's signature greenish-blue palette bathes the entire composition, drawing the eye toward the luminous center in classic Haitian naïve style, steeped in the artist's well-known voodoo-inspired symbolism. Byron began his career as a carpenter and shipbuilder before a visit to Haiti's famed Centre d'Art in 1948 inspired him to paint. He joined the Centre formally in 1955 and became known for his semi-mystical landscapes rendered in his instantly recognizable blue-green tonality. His work has been exhibited throughout Haiti and the United States and is held in collections including the Milwaukee Art Museum and the Jonathan Demme Haitian Art Collection. This painting comes from a private collection in Spain, where it will ship from. We will provide a Certificate of Authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHaitian artist Bourmond Byron was born in Jacmel in 1920.
