What a stunning original rare subject of an abstract scene painted by one of our famous painters Franck Louisssaint to lift up your decor!

Franck Louissaint was born on October 22, 1949 in Aquin, Haiti, and died on February 5, 2021.  Franck completed part of his studies in Port-au-Prince and began to paint on his own. In 1969, he joined the Art Center and developed a hyper-realist art which he then went on to teach at the center. He is known for his street scenes and paintings of rural life. Louissaint may be categorized as a pivot painter, having made the transition from the style of painting termed naïve to the more stripped-down painting termed modern. (Biographical Source: La Peinture Haitienne/Haitian Arts by Marie-José Gardère and Gérald Bloncourt, Editions Nathan, Paris, 1986) “Highly motivated, Louissaint broke with the so-called primitive style to achieve an extraordinary degree of realism” says art critic Gérald Alexis in his book.
