Return from the hunt c. 1902

"Return from the Hunt," created in 1902 by the French Post-Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin, showcases a sketch of a woman riding a horse with a man trailing behind carrying a dead animal. The drawing, done in a simplified style, is characterized by Gauguin's signature use of thick lines and dark shading, emphasizing the figures and their surrounding landscape. The scene evokes a sense of primitive life and the return from a successful hunting expedition. This piece, currently housed in the Städel Museum, offers a glimpse into Gauguin's artistic exploration of themes of nature and human experience.
