"Te atua (The God)" is a woodcut from Paul Gauguin's "Noa Noa" suite, created in 1893-1894. The print depicts three figures against a stylized landscape. Gauguin’s fascination with the Tahitian culture is evident in the composition of the artwork. Gauguin experimented with bold lines, flat planes of color, and simplified forms. These bold elements are characteristic of his Synthetist style, a style that prioritizes form over realism. The work is now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago.
