Product description
The figures in Maternité II represent a cycle of life and motherhood set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Tahiti. Paul Gauguin captures these three women in a harmonious arrangement of flat, saturated color blocks, using a palette of sunset oranges, deep blues, and lime greens. This print showcases the artist’s move toward Synthetism, where the symbolic weight of the scene is as important as the visual representation.
The painting evokes a sense of primordial tranquility, far removed from the industrialization of the West that Gauguin famously sought to escape. There is a quiet gravity to the composition, particularly in the protective posture of the seated mother and the distant gazes of her companions. It invites the viewer to slow down and appreciate the raw, unadorned beauty of human connection and natural abundance.
Pair this poster with impressionist art prints; it also bridges neatly into paul gauguin prints.
