Christmas Gift Ideas

 

If you’d like to gift something simple but meaningful look no further than in our art print section! The only thing rarer than Haitian art is Haitian art prints. Art prints are limited and exclusive by nature, which makes Haitian art prints that much more valuable within communities. Representing an array of printmaking processes, our art prints range from lithographs to posters. 

Our choice is this "Island Flowers" Poster On Paper by Jean-Claude Legagneur, a famous figurative master painter from Haiti. 

Get this for just $25!
