Haitian Vodou beaded wall-hanging by renowned Haitian artist Evelyn Alcide. Evelyn Alcide (Port-au-Prince, Haiti). Sequins and beads on fabric. This flag is extremely densely beaded and sequinned (and thus extremely heavy), in the manner of the artists Constant, Simeon and others. Size: 19 x 23 in. Frame: 26 x 31 in. Condition: Very good. Expect to pay $4000 for similar pieces online right now by Evelyn. The Vodou religion developed over several centuries and today it is the religion and culture of most Haitians. It is a system of beliefs that connects the visible and the invisible worlds. The scenes depicted on the flags are taken from the Vodou pantheon: a syncretism of deities from the various religions of the slaves brought from Africa to Haiti starting in the 16th century, deities form the religions of indigenous Haitians, and the Catholic saints the European colonizers brought with them. Fantastic, appreciable, historic, art! Congratulations to the winning bidder!
