Crouching Tahitian woman 1902

"Crouching Tahitian Woman" is a painting created by Paul Gauguin in 1902, just a year before his death. Gauguin is known for his vibrant colors and expressive brushstrokes, which are evident in this piece as well. The painting depicts a woman in a crouching position, with a background of lush foliage, showcasing Gauguin's fascination with the people and landscapes of Tahiti. The use of earthy tones and bold outlines lends a primitive and symbolic feel to the piece. This artwork is representative of Gauguin's artistic exploration of Tahitian culture and the impact of his late period in the South Pacific.
