This striking composition features a central lion surrounded by zebras and giraffes set within dense, stylized tropical foliage. Executed in the classic Haitian jungle tradition, the work showcases Filsaimond’s signature use of saturated color, flattened perspective, and rhythmic patterning throughout the leaves and animal forms—recalling the influence of Henri Rousseau while remaining distinctly Caribbean in spirit.

Henri Filsaimond was an active Haitian painter in the late 20th century, known for his richly detailed jungle scenes and vibrant depictions of wildlife. His work forms part of Haiti’s celebrated naïve painting tradition, which gained international recognition for its bold color, storytelling, and decorative appeal.

The scale and clarity of composition make this an excellent statement piece—ideal for layered, collected interiors, Palm Beach style, or eclectic modern spaces.
