Amos Ferguson

Amos Ferguson (born 1920, Exuma, The Bahamas, died 2009) was one of The Bahamas's most prolific artists and remains its most renowned intuitive artists, often referred to as "the grandfather of Bahamian Art." A deeply religious man, Ferguson's work illustrates religious and folklore narratives, in which anthropomorphic animals, angels, music and landscape are depicted in curious and stunning compositions.
