During his years in Tahiti, first from 1891 to 1893 and again from 1895 until his death in 1903, Paul Gauguin painted the island's traditional thatched dwellings, or fare, set among palms and dense tropical vegetation. "Tahitian Hut" reflects his fascination with the built and natural landscape of the island, rendered in the flattened forms and rich, non-naturalistic color that defined his mature style. Paintings like this one were part of Gauguin's broader effort to depict a Tahiti he believed was more authentic and unspoiled than the colonial town of Papeete, even as the island was already being transformed by French rule.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

This is my fourth order from this shop and the standard has not slipped once. It looks like something you would find in a very good museum shop. It has come through a summer of open windows and humidity without a problem. The light in the Pacific Northwest is gray most of the year and this still holds its color. Buy it, you will not regret it.
Really glad it worked out. Thanks for writing something this specific, it helps other people decide. Best, Ines
Everything about this went better than I hoped. The texture in Tahitian Hut makes Gauguin feel present in the room. The tones are deep and even across the entire surface. 👌
The reproduction quality is the best I have seen anywhere near this price. Anyone who loves Gauguin should have Tahitian Hut somewhere in the house. The value here is so good that I keep expecting to find the catch. This shop has a customer for life in me. 🙂

The subject alone sold me and the execution sealed it. The finish is even and flawless right to the edges. I will absolutely be ordering from here again.
