About the Item
"Six Breasts No Waiting" showcases Haitian Master Salnave Philippe-Auguste's whimsically fruitful imagination. He executes it in a distinctive painting style of simplified composition, stylized organic shapes, and fanciful patterns rendered in flat vivid color. The viewer is treated to a naive yet sophisticated fantasy delight reminiscent of Henri Rousseau but with a Haitian gaze. Signed and dated lower right. The work is housed in a large and elegantly appropriate Renaissance style Heydenryk Frame. Frame size, 46.5 x 36.25. This is a large painting and masterfully framed. It will be a statement piece in any home.

The Vision - Surreal Black Female Portrait
Located in Miami, FL
This earlier work depicts an unexpected multicolored cone extending from the subject's eye. It represents a field of vision for a young Haitian female who gazes up. It reminds me of something Man Ray or the Dadaists did. Duval-Carrié's work is more than eye-opening.
