"Still Life" original acrylic on masonite by listed Haitian artist, Emilcar Similien, known as "Simil" circa 1982. Originally purchased at Michel Monin Galleries in Haiti in 1982. Measures in frame, 30'' H x 30'' W. This item comes with a discretionary reserve. Emilcar Similien, known as Simil was born in 1944 in St. Marc. From 1965 to 1971 he studied painting, sculpture, and art history at the Academy of Beaux-Arts in Port-au-Prince.
