La Orana Maria (Hail Mary)

Item # 2475867

Paul Gauguin

<p>Though his talent wasn't recognized until after his death, French painter Paul Gauguin's (1848 - 1903) works pay homage to the post-Impressionist. His playful use of color was a way of expressing emotion and spirituality in each piece he created. Find stunning works in the Paul Gauguin Collection!</p>

<p>Before embarking on a series of pictures inspired by Polynesian religious beliefs, Gauguin devoted this, his first major Tahitian canvas, to a Christian theme, describing it in a letter of March 1892: An angel with yellow wings reveals Mary and Jesus, both Tahitians, to two Tahitian women, nudes dressed in pareus, a sort of cotton cloth printed with flowers that can be draped from the waist. Very somber, mountainous background and flowering trees ... a dark violet path and an emerald green foreground, with bananas on the left. I'm rather happy with it. Gauguin based much of the composition on a photograph he owned of a bas-relief in the Javanese temple of Borobudur.</p>
