Florence Martinez (1940-1997) Christ Isorel panel signed and dated (illegible) 81 x 61 cm (Slightly missing) Florence Martinez was born in Jacmel in 1940. He began painting in Haiti, at the Centre d'Art in 1959. At a very young age, he won a painting competition organized by the Association des Dames du Corps diplomatique. He was one of the last artists to work on the paintings for the "Sainte-Trinite" Episcopal Cathedral in Port-au-Prince. Today, updated, his works are much sought-after. Martinez's colorful work was one of the first art selections sold in the Parke Bernet and Sothebys galleries to raise funds for the construction of the Port-au-Prince Art Center, which opened on May 22, 1969.
