More about this artwork
Paul Gauguin's 1888 painting "Madame Roulin" is a striking portrait that encapsulates the artist's transcendence into Post-Impressionism. The artwork presents Madame Roulin, a robust figure clad in a dark green dress. Her thoughtful expression and seated pose invite viewers into her introspective world. Gauguin's use of vivid, contrasting colors and bold outlines distinguishes this piece within his oeuvre. The bright yellow and green background juxtaposed with the cooler blues gives the painting vibrancy and depth.Gauguin's masterful application of color and form not only emphasizes his subject's physical presence but also conveys deep psychological insight. "Madame Roulin" is a stellar example of how art can capture both the essence of an individual and wider artistic movements.

Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin was a French Post-Impressionist artist. Unappreciated until after his death, Gauguin is now recognized for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinct from Impressionism. Toward the end of his life, he spent ten years in French Polynesia. The paintings from this time depict people or landscapes from that region.
