About the Item

Title: Fruit Market in Haiti Artist: JM Gary Delly Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions (unframed): 9.8 x 7.9 in Dimensions (framed): 15 x 13 in Period: Approx. 1990-1999 Origin: Haiti Condition: Good, with frame included Description of the Artwork This painting captures a lively Haitian market scene, embodying the essence of Haitian primitivist art with its vibrant colors and thick impasto brushstrokes. The scene depicts a bustling marketplace where vendors and buyers interact, surrounded by piles of tropical fruits arranged in baskets. The figures are dressed in bright, contrasting tones, enhancing the painting’s dynamic and energetic atmosphere. The artist’s expressive, thick strokes and saturated colors create a sense of movement and liveliness. The composition is carefully balanced, with figures arranged in different planes, providing depth and perspective in an intuitive manner. The lush vegetation in the background and the bright blue sky add further context to the scene, situating it in the Caribbean setting. Haitian art, influenced by its African and Caribbean heritage, is known for its naïve style and depictions of everyday life. JM Gary Delly follows this tradition, celebrating the vibrancy of Haitian culture in his work. Comparable Artists This artwork shares stylistic similarities with renowned Haitian artists, including: Wilson Bigaud (1931-2010): A master of Haitian art, famous for his detailed depictions of everyday life and folklore. André Normil (1934-2015): Known for his naïve style and colorful representations of Haitian life. Laurent Casimir (1928-1990): Specialized in market scenes and community activities with vivid colors. Préféte Duffaut (1923-2012): Recognized for his dreamlike urban landscapes, though with a similarly detailed approach. This painting is a fine example of the rich artistic tradition of Haiti, showcasing the expressive use of color and the unique aesthetic of Caribbean folk art.

Ibiza market Spain oil on canvas painting mediterranean european art
By Ignacio Gil Sala
Located in Barcelona, Barcelona
Title: Ibiza Market Artist: Ignacio Gil Sala (Barcelona, 1913 – 2003) Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 60 x 73 cm (23.6 x 28.7 in) Support: Unframed canvas Signature: Signed in the lower left corner Period: Mid-20th century Condition: Very good. Original stretcher, canvas not relined. Inscriptions and stamp on the reverse. Provenance: Private collection DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK In Ibiza Market, Ignacio Gil Sala transports us to a traditional Mediterranean island scene, likely set in the 1950s or 60s. Women with brightly colored scarves, children, fruit, and woven baskets fill a lively open space under improvised awnings, where sunlight filters through with vibrant intensity. The artist skillfully and emotively captures the bustle of market day, using a rich palette of earth tones, blues, and yellows applied with loose, impasto brushstrokes that convey both motion and warmth. His focus on the human and the everyday reveals Gil Sala’s poetic interest in documenting the essence of popular life. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Ignacio Gil Sala (Barcelona, 1913 – 2003) was a prominent Spanish Post-Impressionist painter, celebrated for his treatment of Mediterranean light and his sensitivity in portraying genre scenes. Trained at the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona, he was awarded the Silver Medal in 1930 and received a grant in 1936 to travel throughout Spain, supported by the sculptor Mariano Benlliure. His work includes landscapes, seascapes, portraits, and urban scenes, all depicted with a lively, honest, and direct gaze. His compositions exhibit strong draftsmanship and a free brushstroke, echoing the legacy of the Valencian luminist school. Ibiza was one of his recurring sources of inspiration, as this painting attests. He received numerous awards, including: Silver Medal from the School of Fine Arts (1930) First Medal at the International Exhibition of Palma de Mallorca (1941) Prizes at the African Painters...
