The Holy Trinity Cathedral Murals painted by Haitian Artists

advertisement
Located in downtown Port-au-Prince in Haiti, the Holy Trinity Cathedral was famous for its interior murals painted by some of the most famous Haitian artists. The paintings inside the Cathedral depicted biblical stories where all the actors were black.

Under the direction of DeWitt Peters and Selden Rodman, artists such as Philome Obin, Castera Bazile, Rigaud Benoit, Gabriel Leveque, Wilson Bigaud, Jasmin Joseph and Prefete Dufaud were all involved in this project to paint the Holy Trinity Cathedral Murals.

Unfortunately, the Holy Trinity Cathedral was heavily damaged in the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Holy Trinity Cathedral is located in Port-au-Prince, at the corner of Rue Pavee and Avenue Mgr. Guilloux
Holy Trinity cathedral was built in the 1920's. With the help of DeWitt Peters and Selden Rodman of the Centre D'Art Haitien, the famous murals were added to the site in early 1950's.
