Ángel Botello was a Spanish painter known for his use of vibrant colors and depictions of island life and people in Haiti, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico. His work is often compared to that of Gaugin, both for his focus on Caribbean women and for his use of bold lines and flat colors.
