Description
This striking acrylic on canvas by Haitian artist Gerard Fortune features three enchanting mermaid musicians floating in a swirling sea of turquoise, coral, and seafoam tones. Rendered in Fortune’s bold, graphic naif style, the composition immediately captivates with its rhythmic patterning, luminous palette, and playful symbolism. Each siren wears a wide-brimmed hat and jewelry while performing music—one on trumpet, one on a stringed instrument, and one raising a maraca—transforming the underwater world into a celebratory scene of Caribbean spirit and Vodou-inflected mythology. The painting’s strong color contrast, decorative surface, and iconic subject matter make it a standout statement piece for collectors drawn to Haitian Vodou imagery, mermaid symbolism (La Sirène), and rare narrative works with high visual impact. At an impressive 40 x 30 inches, it offers commanding wall presence and reads beautifully in both contemporary and eclectic interiors. Unframed and ready to ship, this work is ideal for collectors seeking an authentic, collector-grade example of Haitian Vodou-inspired painting.
