Riders on the beach II - Paul Gauguin
Excellent
L'œuvre en bref
Delving into the rich and vibrant world of Paul Gauguin, we come across Cavaliers sur la plage II. Originating in the post-impressionist period, this work masterfully blends landscape and genre scenes to offer a complex, textured depiction of Tahitian life.
Gauguin's bold choice to juxtapose bright, contrasting tones contributes to a vibrant, electrifying atmosphere, capturing the very essence of Polynesia. The simplified forms of the riders and horses, the sharp delineations between colours, the bold curves and lines all testify to the Synthétiste influence on his work. Cavaliers sur la plage II perfectly illustrates how Gauguin broke away from realistic representation to explore a more expressive and symbolic aesthetic.
