Cut Metal Haiti NativityPRINT THIS PAGE

Haitian kings visit the Holy Family in this fine example of cut metal art.

Among Haiti’s most original art forms, this type of ironwork began in Croix des Bouquets, a small village outside Port-au-Prince. In the early 1930s Georges Liautaud formed imaginative cemetery crosses from recycled metal cut from oil drums. An artistic tradition has grown from those humble beginnings and now the village has become a center for this art, with more than 60 workshops.
