Jacmel, Haiti, dated 2/7/1986
Oil on board (20" x 24"), framed.
Signed and dated in lower left corner.
Note: The phrase "Jn Clod + Makout = 29 Ans" refers to the long and oppressive reign of Jean-Claude Duvalier and his father Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier, which has just been overturned in 1986. The scene depicts some of the revenge and bloodletting, called "Dechoukaj", meaning "uprooting" in Kreyol, which followed.
