Hut under the coconut palms 1894

"Hut Under the Coconut Palms" is a watercolor painting by Paul Gauguin, created in 1894 during his time in Tahiti. The painting features a simple thatched hut with a bright red door, set against a backdrop of tall, slender coconut palms that rise up against a vibrant blue sky. Gauguin's signature use of bold colors and simplified forms, characteristic of his Tahitian period, is evident in this work. The painting is a celebration of the beauty and simplicity of life in the tropics and is considered a key example of Post-Impressionism, a movement that emerged in reaction to Impressionism.
