Notre Dame des Agnes 1884

"Notre Dame des Agnes" is an oil painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created in 1884. The painting depicts a view of a church with a winding pathway and lush greenery in the foreground. Gauguin’s early works showcase a distinctive blend of Realism and Impressionism, marked by his use of color and light and brushstrokes that evoke the impression of nature rather than a precise representation. This work is a testament to Gauguin's fascination with the beauty of the natural world and his burgeoning artistic style.
