Auti te pape (Women at the River), from the Noa Noa Suite, 1894
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Paul Gauguin transports us to a distant time and place. Titled "Auti te pape (Women at the River)" it is part of Gauguin's renowned Noa Noa Suite created in 1894. The image captures two Tahitian women bathing in a river, their nakedness unapologetically celebrated. Gauguin, a French post-impressionist artist, was known for his exotic depictions of Polynesian life. In this woodblock print, he skillfully combines vibrant colors like orange and black to create a striking contrast against the serene riverbank setting. The composition not only showcases Gauguin's mastery of block printing techniques but also highlights his fascination with capturing the essence of different cultures. Through this artwork, he invites viewers to explore an unfamiliar world filled with beauty and mystery. As we gaze upon these Tahitian women immersed in nature's embrace, we are reminded of the rich heritage and diversity that exists across our planet. This piece serves as a testament to Gauguin's ability to transport us through time and space while celebrating the unique qualities that make each culture special. Displayed within an art gallery or institute such as The Art Institute Chicago, this print would undoubtedly captivate audiences with its evocative portrayal of femininity and exploration of cultural identity. It stands as both a visual delight and an important historical artifact from one of history's most influential artists - Paul Gauguin.
