Seascape with cow on the edge of a cliff 1888

"Seascape with Cow on the Edge of a Cliff" is an oil painting by Paul Gauguin, created in 1888. The painting features a cow standing on a green grassy area in the foreground, against the backdrop of a dramatic seascape. The coastline is defined by steep cliffs, with the sea appearing dark and mysterious. The cow is depicted in a simplified, almost symbolic manner, with its black form standing out against the vibrant greens and oranges of the landscape. The painting is currently housed at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, France. Gauguin’s work is known for its bold colors and simplified forms, which contribute to its unique and expressive character.
