West African artisan Samuel Ashong's original batik artwork depicts a strong group of five women titled "Debt Collectors." Often in the marketplace, friends rely upon each other to help right any wrongs they've suffered. Ashong explains the power of these women who get their point across without speaking a word: "The body language of the debt collectors is a clear indication to the debtor. They do not give any demand notice but the debt is paid in no time." In warm tones of maize, tangerine and vermilion contrasted with chestnut brown and black accents, this batik art will be a vibrant addition to any room.

"Beautiful Batik"
The art is beautiful and will be a great addition to our home. The packaging did protect the batik, but the matting is creased on one entire short end.

"treasure from Africa"
I made one African wall in my hallway. I have been to Africa many times, but I could not return with anything big...I love this picture of the women at the market in West Africa. It has modern and primitive elements as I see it, and it goes well with my other artifacts.
