Amazing vintage piece of Haitian art signed St Vil Murat? Work is rather old and on stretched canvas. Colors are very bright and similar to the Neo-Mannerism of Ernie Barnes work. Depicts a colorful & abstract view of a Haitian market. There are a few small condition issues that I have photographed. Just a few small areas where paint has worn away and there may be a blemish here and there. Painting could use a slight cleaning. It displays wonderfully as is. Frame measures 20 1/2″ x 12 1/2″. Actual canvas work measures 15 3/4″ x 8″. It could stand to be re-framed as the actual work does not fit perfectly in current frame and is a bit loose. Amazing find from a Chicago area estate.
