Paul Gauguin Haere Pape 1892 Oil canvas Fed up
Paul Gauguin: Haere Pape, Paul Gauguin, 1892, Oil on canvas, Fed up with industrialized Europe, Paul Gauguin went to Tahiti in 1891 seeking a simpler, more primitive way of life, one uncorrupted by modern technology and uptight social mores. Although the island was in fact changing--it had been colonized by the French--Gauguin still painted the Tahiti of his fantasy. Here, as in so many of his canvases from the period, he depicts a native Tahitian woman wearing a traditional pareo. Barefoot, tranquil, and at ease in her surroundings, the woman is imagined as a corporeal creature in perfect harmony with nature. Overall: 36 x 26 1/2 in. (91.4 x 67.3 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Paul Gauguin's masterpiece, "Haere Pape" painted in 1892. Fed up with the industrialized and rigid society of Europe, Gauguin embarked on a journey to Tahiti in 1891, yearning for a simpler and more primitive way of life untouched by modern technology and societal constraints. Despite the island undergoing colonization by the French, Gauguin chose to paint his idealized version of Tahiti. In this particular artwork, he portrays a native Tahitian woman adorned in a traditional pareo. With bare feet and an aura of tranquility, she exudes harmony with her natural surroundings. Gauguin's brushstrokes capture her as a corporeal being deeply connected to nature itself. The dimensions of this remarkable oil on canvas painting are 36 x 26 1/2 inches (91.4 x 67.3 cm), allowing viewers to appreciate the intricate details that make it so enchanting. Through "Haere Pape". Gauguin invites us into his utopian vision where simplicity reigns supreme and cultural authenticity thrives amidst changing times. This piece serves as a testament to his desire for artistic escapism from the pressures of modernity. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print preserves Gauguin's legacy while offering art enthusiasts an opportunity to bring home a slice of paradise depicted through his vivid imagination.
