Description

This original oil on canvas by Haitian artist Croshen (Henrique Crossley, born 1950) presents a dreamlike and introspective portrait rendered in refined surrealist style. The artist intertwines multiple female profiles, organic shapes, and soft flowing lines that merge reality with imagination. A single candle and symbolic forms add spiritual depth and meditative calm to the composition. Painted in luminous tones of violet, rose, and amber, the work reveals Croshen’s technical mastery and poetic vision. His art reflects a deep psychological sensibility and an interest in the interplay between light, form, and emotion—elements that have defined his reputation within the modern Haitian art movement. This painting originates from a prestigious private collection in the Dominican Republic and remains unframed and in excellent condition. Upon purchase, Myriam Nader Haitian Art Gallery will issue a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). Portrait Abstrait stands as a compelling example of Croshen’s imaginative artistry, where surrealism meets human introspection within the broader tradition of Haitian modernism.
