Te Tamari, 1936
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of renowned French post-impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. This intimate portrait, captured from Gauguin's personal journals, transports us to the enchanting landscapes of French Polynesia in the early 20th century. In this monochrome masterpiece, Gauguin skillfully depicts a Tahitian boy surrounded by his family. The young child stands proudly amidst lush foliage, embodying the innocence and purity of youth. His nakedness symbolizes the unadulterated connection between humans and nature that fascinated Gauguin throughout his career. The artist's mastery shines through as he delicately portrays each figure with intricate detail. The mother tenderly embraces her son while exuding an aura of maternal love and protection. Behind them stands a lady, perhaps an elder sister or aunt, observing their bond with gentle admiration. Gauguin's brushstrokes capture not only the physical attributes but also the spirit and essence of these Polynesian individuals. Through this artwork, he invites us to explore themes of family dynamics, cultural heritage, and human connections within a tropical paradise. As we gaze upon "Te Tamari" we are transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever on canvas – a testament to both Gauguin's artistic genius and his deep fascination with Tahitian life.
