EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by renowned artist Paul Gauguin. This artwork, featured in Gauguin's Intimate Journals published by Crown Publishers in New York in 1936, transports us to the enchanting landscapes of French Polynesia. In this post-impressionist masterpiece, Gauguin skillfully captures a group of people amidst their relocation on horseback. The scene exudes a sense of movement and energy as men and women stand alongside their horses, ready to embark on this journey together. The monochrome palette adds depth and intensity to the composition while emphasizing the contrast between light and shadow. Gauguin's fascination with Tahitian culture shines through as he portrays both male and female figures dressed in traditional attire. Their presence evokes a feeling of unity within the community during this transformative period. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported back to the 1930s when French Polynesia was still relatively untouched by modernity. Through his masterful sketching technique, Gauguin invites us into his world—a world where nature intertwines with human existence harmoniously. With every stroke of his pencil, he captures not only the physical surroundings but also the spirit and essence of these Windward Islands. "Change of Residence, 1936" stands as a testament to Gauguin's artistic genius—an exploration that transcends time and space—allowing viewers today to experience firsthand his unique perspective on life in
