"Buddha" is a wood-block print created by Paul Gauguin in 1898-99. The print features a black-and-white depiction of a seated Buddha with a simplified style and dark background. This print is part of a series of woodcuts Gauguin made during his time in Tahiti, inspired by his fascination with Asian art and culture. Gauguin's "Buddha" is a significant example of the artist's exploration of woodblock printing, showing his interest in a different art form and cultural influence.
