The tallest thing at this market is not a tree, it is a stack of folded cloth that looks like a layer cake. Layer Cake Headload fills the canvas with about eighteen market women, mangoes and banana bunches, with trees and blue hills rising behind.

Women balancing loads on their heads, with baskets and fruit all around, are a much loved theme in Haitian art. Count the figures and you will keep finding new ones tucked between the trees.

This original was painted in Panama by Haitian artists, and the signature reads Aristil. It has been carefully stored and is in very good condition.

It is hand painted on canvas and comes unframed, as a loose canvas, ready for the frame of your choice.

Founded in 1991, TraderBrock celebrates handmade art from Latin America and the people who make it. Haitian paintings have been part of our collection from the very start, and all profits go back into the indigenous artisan communities we work with in Panama.
