Item Details

Description

Ernst Prophete (Haitian/Cap-Haitien, b. 1950)
Terrier-Rouge 1915: Repaire des Cacos/Cacos Hideout, c. 1975
Oil on masonite, 24 x 30 inches
Framed dimensions: 24 3/4 x 30 3/4 inches

Provenance:
Mr. & Mrs. Harry L. Hughes
Daniel Malloy
Jonathan Demme (Oscar winning director)
Acquired from the above by present owner

Exhibited/Illustrated:
Haitian Art / The Brooklyn Museum: plate 14, page 49
Three Visions, plate 31, page 63

Lot Essay:
After earning an electronics degree, Ernst Prophete, living in Port-au-Prince, formally started painting in 1972. Although untrained, Prophete had grown up in the same Cap-Haitien neighborhood as the Obin family. He admires thematic art, and wants his paintings to tell dynamic stories that have not been told, stories that engage with spirituality, industry, politics and democracy. His intention is to create a body of work that presents and preserves a significant historical record.
