It depicts Baron Samedi ( Loa of the dead) at the cemetery with a top hat, black tailcoat, and dark glasses, as if to resemble a corpse dressed and prepared for burial in the Haitian style. This painting was painted specially for my father, Georges S. Nader's Collection. This stunning masterpiece now belongs to my private collection. Baron Samedi
