EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Paul Gauguin's masterpiece, "Be Be (Nativity), 1896". The painting, housed in the esteemed collection of The Hermitage in St Petersburg, transports viewers to a world of vibrant colors and Polynesian charm. Gauguin, a French post-impressionist artist known for his exploration of exotic landscapes and cultures, beautifully captures the essence of Tahitian life. In this scene, we witness a group of women and children gathered inside a traditional house adorned with intricate carvings. A mother cradles her baby while other women engage in conversation or simply observe their surroundings. The warm glow emanating from within creates an intimate atmosphere that invites us into their domestic life. Gauguin's attention to detail is evident as he includes various elements symbolizing religious significance and cultural traditions. A pig—a revered animal in Polynesia—graces the foreground, representing fertility and abundance. This nod to Christianity intertwines with local customs, highlighting the fusion between European religion and indigenous beliefs. The artist's use of bold colors adds depth to the composition while capturing the lushness of Pacific islands' landscapes. Through his distinct impressionistic style, Gauguin masterfully conveys not only visual beauty but also emotional resonance. "Be Be (Nativity)" serves as a testament to Gauguin's ability to transport us across time and space through his artistry. It encapsulates both his fascination with foreign lands and his desire to depict authentic moments from
