Eve 1898 - 1899

"Eve" (1898-1899) is a woodcut print by Paul Gauguin, depicting a nude woman standing with her hands clasped in front of her. The artist's unique style is evident in the simplified forms and bold black lines that define the figures. The print, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a powerful example of Gauguin's exploration of the female form and his interest in primitivism, a movement that embraced non-Western art and cultures.
