Description

Evelyn Alcide (Port-au-Prince, Haiti)
Sequins and beads on fabric (51 1/4” x 33 1/4”), c.2005
This flag is extremely densely beaded and sequinned (and thus extremely heavy), in the manner of the artists Constant, Simeon and others.
Flag is currently mounted flat on a foamcore backing, so will be shipped flat unless otherwise requested.
Ex. collection of Nancy Josephson.  The flag is published on p. 163 of Nancy’s book, Spirits in Sequins:  Vodou Flags of Haiti:  “Legba is referenced in the chromolithograph of St. Lazarus.”
