{"product_id":"paul-gauguin-crouching-tahitian-woman-fine-art-print","title":"Paul Gauguin — Crouching Tahitian Woman | Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA young woman crouches on a green ground, knees drawn up and bare feet crossed at the ankles, one arm braced on the ground and her cheek resting against the other hand. She wears a white top and a pale pareu worked with yellow, outlined in blue on the tan paper, her dark hair drawn back from a centre parting. A grid of ruled lines crosses the whole sheet for transferring the figure; the Art Institute of Chicago relates it to the painting Nafea faa ipoipo (When Will You Marry?).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: pastel over charcoal, squared in black chalk, on cream wove paper, 1891\/93, Art Institute of Chicago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Gauguin (1848–1903) gave up a career as a Paris stockbroker to paint, and in 1885 left his wife and five children to pursue it. He led the Pont-Aven painters toward flat colour and simplified form, and worked beside Van Gogh in Arles in 1888. From 1891 he lived mostly in Tahiti and, from 1901, the Marquesas, where Polynesian figures, colour and myth became his subject. There he took girls of thirteen and fourteen as his 'wives': by his own account Teha'amana, whose face recurs in the Tahitian paintings of 1891–93, was thirteen. His synthetist style shaped the Nabis, Fauvism and Expressionism; in recent decades historians and museums have reassessed him for this sexual exploitation of Polynesian girls and for the colonial fantasy of Tahiti his work helped build. His paintings are held by the Musée d'Orsay, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
