Some foreign personalities like Pierre Cardin, Denzel Washington and Danielle Mitterand also have works by Claude in their collections.

Claude Dambreville died at the age of 86. "We salute the departure of Claude Dambreville, an artist full of surprises who has marked Haitian painting due to the versatility of his work over the years. The Art Center is fortunate to have in its collection one of all first works of Dambreville, from the time when he signed 'Anatole Cyprien',"stressed the Art Center. IH/ iciHaiti
