Wilson Bigaud was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti in 1928. At age 18, he met Dewitt Peters and joined the Centre d'Art. In 1950, his painting, "Paradise", won second prize in an international art exhibit and was subsequently purchased by the Museum of Modern Art.&#13;
In 1957, Bigaud sank into a deep depression and did not paint again until 1962. In the later decades of his life, Wilson Bigaud lived and worked in the relative solitude of Petit Goave, until his passing in 2010.&#13;
&#13;
In this painting, a boy brings an offering of birds that he has trapped home to his mother. Bigaud incorporates many interesting details into the country home interior setting. A neighbor or other family member peers in through the window to witness the sweet scene.</text>
