Paul Gauguin's "Still life with horse's head" (1886), a striking example of the artist's Post-Impressionist style, features a Japanese doll, a horse's head sculpture, and other objects. The scene is composed in a distinct, almost abstract manner, with the objects arranged in a dynamic composition. Gauguin's use of bold colors and brushstrokes contributes to the painting's expressiveness and adds a sense of depth to the still life. His fascination with Japanese art is evident in the presence of the doll and the fan, which contribute to the painting's exotic and decorative qualities.
