EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating woodcut print, "Le Sourire" created by the renowned artist Paul Gauguin in 1899-1900, is a powerful representation of his artistic and political beliefs. Housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, this artwork was originally published as part of a periodical produced by Gauguin himself during his time in Tahiti. Gauguin's intention behind creating this publication was to challenge the French official colonial establishment and advocate for the cause of French settlers. Only nine issues were ever produced, making each print incredibly rare and significant. In "Le Sourire". Gauguin skillfully combines elements of animal imagery with handwritten text to convey his message effectively. A majestic horse takes center stage, symbolizing strength and power amidst the political turmoil. The carefully inscribed words surrounding the image further emphasize Gauguin's critique on colonialism and politics. This remarkable piece showcases Gauguin's mastery as both a painter and an artist who used art as a medium for social commentary. It belongs to the post-impressionist movement that challenged traditional artistic conventions prevalent during its time. "Le Sourire" serves not only as an exquisite work of art but also as a historical artifact that sheds light on Gauguin's personal convictions regarding politics and society in France during the late nineteenth century. Its presence within The Art Institute of Chicago allows viewers to engage with Gauguin's vision firsthand, appreciating both its aesthetic beauty and profound meaning.
