Soyez amoureuses, vous serez heureuses (Love, and You Will Be Happy), from the Suite of Late Wood-Block Prints 1899

"Soyez amoureuses, vous serez heureuses (Love, and You Will Be Happy)" is a wood-block print created by Paul Gauguin in 1899. This work, part of his "Suite of Late Wood-Block Prints", portrays a scene with multiple figures. The print captures Gauguin's signature use of bold black lines and simplified forms. The subject matter, a group of women and children in a contemplative setting, suggests Gauguin's interest in the Tahitian culture and his personal philosophies. This work is a fascinating example of Gauguin's later artistic exploration of symbolism and expressive form.
