This woodcut print, "Liggend meisje bang voor geesten van overledenen" (1894), by Paul Gauguin depicts a young girl lying in a fetal position on a bed, seemingly afraid of ghosts or spirits. The dark and shadowy tones of the print, combined with the girl's contorted posture, create a sense of unease and vulnerability, characteristic of Gauguin's artistic style. The print is a testament to Gauguin's exploration of themes of death, spirituality, and the human condition, particularly during his later years spent in Tahiti.
