EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a carved vertical panel from the door frame of Gauguin's final residence in Atuona on Hiva Oa, located in the mesmerizing Marquesas Islands. The panel, made from sequoia wood, is a testament to Gauguin's artistic genius and his deep connection with the local culture. In this image, we see a dog standing proudly beside the intricately carved wooden panel. The native motifs adorning the surface tell stories of island life and traditions. A walking stick or cane leans against the side of the panel, hinting at its practical use as well as its symbolic significance. Gauguin's time spent in these remote islands greatly influenced his artistry, inspiring him to create some of his most renowned works. This photograph captures not only the beauty of Gauguin's craftsmanship but also provides us with a glimpse into his final years immersed in this idyllic paradise. Now housed at Musee d'Orsay in Paris, France, this piece serves as a reminder of Gauguin's lasting impact on both Western art history and indigenous cultures. It invites viewers to appreciate not only his technical skill but also his ability to capture the essence and spirit of these far-flung lands through intricate carvings that continue to captivate audiences today.
