Description
This original Haitian oil painting by Emile Fritz depicts a serene rural village landscape painted circa 1980, a sought-after period in Haitian art. The composition features winding paths, modest countryside homes, and small figures moving through cultivated fields beneath a luminous turquoise sky. Fritz’s signature pastoral style is expressed through rhythmic vegetation, delicate flowering trees, and a balanced decorative structure that evokes the quiet beauty of Haiti’s countryside. This work is offered from the private collection of Myriam F. Nader and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity issued by Myriam Nader Haitian Art Gallery. The painting shows minor surface wear consistent with age, and the price has been adjusted accordingly.
