Te atua (The God), from the Noa Noa Suite 1893 - 1894

"Te atua (The God)" is a wood-engraving created by Paul Gauguin during his time in Tahiti, and is part of his Noa Noa Suite, inspired by his experiences in Polynesia. The artwork portrays three figures: a couple embracing, a seated woman, and a standing figure on the right. Gauguin's simplified forms and bold lines are characteristic of his style and his use of Tahitian imagery. The artwork's earthy tones and bold outlines evoke a sense of mysticism and primitivism, captivating viewers with its exotic and spiritual themes.
