Description
This powerful oil on canvas by Jean-Claude Blanc presents one of his most iconic themes: Haitian market women dressed entirely in white. The composition is filled with rows of female figures, their white garments and headwraps forming a luminous pattern that contrasts against their dark silhouettes. Vibrant baskets overflowing with tropical fruits—mangoes, melons, pineapples, and grapes—punctuate the scene with bursts of color, emphasizing the abundance and vitality of Haitian daily life. The artwork is sold in good condition and unframed.
About this artist
About this artist
Blanc’s disciplined use of repetition and rhythm transforms a crowded marketplace into a symbolic meditation on unity, strength, and tradition. The white attire, often associated with ritual, purity, and communal identity in Haitian culture, elevates the everyday act of selling produce into a statement of resilience and dignity. This mid-size work is a quintessential example of Blanc’s mastery and remains highly sought-after in contemporary Haitian art.
