Isma�l led a full and rich
life. An agonomist as well as an artist, he was also a political activist. He spent seven years
in prison for opposing the Duvaliers, Papa and Baby Doc. Even so, thanks to the popularity of his art, he died a
relatively wealthy man by the
standards of his homeland: his estate included a Volkswagen. |
Edouard is
a fine na�f about whom I know little more than that he began
painting in 1972 as a student of
Sully Obin, a son of
S�n�que
Obin.

Eug�ne Jean is among the best of the many painters who studied with Philom� Obin. He works carefully and slowly; his lines are precise and fine; and his use of color is exquisite.
