EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the caricatures of renowned artist Gauguin and Governor Gallet, accompanied by a headpiece from the periodical Le sourire. Created in 1900 using watercolor, pencil, and pen by Gauguin himself, this artwork is currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago in Illinois, USA. Le sourire was a publication that Gauguin produced during his time in Tahiti with the intention of criticizing the French colonial establishment. Only nine issues were ever published, making this piece an incredibly rare find. Through these satirical drawings and cartoons, Gauguin aimed to champion the cause of French settlers while simultaneously attacking the official colonial regime. The image itself depicts three individuals: two men and one woman. The vibrant colors used by Gauguin bring life to their features as they are surrounded by horses – perhaps symbolizing power or freedom – further emphasizing his scathing satire towards colonialism. Gauguin's unique artistic style shines through in this work as he captures not only the physical appearances but also conveys deeper cultural meanings. By including native Mauri people alongside French settlers, he highlights both indigenous populations' struggles under colonization. Overall, this print serves as a powerful reminder of Gauguin's talent for combining artistry with social commentary. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into historical narratives surrounding France's presence in Tahiti during the late 19th century while appreciating the artist's skillful execution and thought-provoking message.
