Product Description
Jungle shade in green. Green is where Neoclassical Pop Art takes the island next, and the Pop version stands as a new oil. Lush and botanical, an easy match for plants, rattan and timber.
With “Passion Fruit, Tahiti” in green, Neoclassical Pop Art sets Paul Gauguin's “Eü Haere Ia Oe” or “Woman Holding a Fruit”, painted in 1893 and now at the Hermitage Museum, in jungle shade.
Rejecting the rules of traditional Impressionism style, Gauguin exiled himself on a tropical island of Tahiti, dreaming the rarest of all artistic achievement, creating his unique style. For that reason, he also abandoned his family life, “People tell me I’m not Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Puvis de Chavannes – but I already know that! Why tell me?” Gauguin Coming from a European background and a Parisian lifestyle, Tahiti was a dream come true for Gauguin who explored in his artwork the extraordinary exotic islander's rituals, mystery, simplicity, and natural harmony found in primitive life.
The artwork created during the first two years he spent in Tahiti Maori title translates as “Where are you going?”. And his across cultures painting features a Tahitian girl with fruit in her hand - representing the Eve of Eastern Paradise.
