"Where are you going?" is a painting by Paul Gauguin, created in 1892 during his time in Tahiti. The artwork depicts three Tahitian women in a landscape setting, showcasing Gauguin's fascination with the culture and people of the South Pacific. The painting's vibrant colors, bold outlines, and flat planes are characteristic of Gauguin's Synthetist style, a movement that emphasized simplified forms and decorative elements. The title and the women's postures suggest a narrative of departure and the unknown, reflecting Gauguin's own personal search for a more authentic and primitive way of life.
