Tahitian Women on the Beach (Femmes de Tahiti)

By Paul Gauguin, 1891
Tahitian Women on the Beach is an 1891 painting by Paul Gauguin after arriving in Tahiti, that summer in June 1891. The painting depicts two women on the Pacific island of Tahiti on the beach.
The young woman on the left wears a red Pareo (wraparound skirt), with a white floral print and white top. The woman on the right facing the viewer wears a full dress influenced by the missionaries. Neither woman is shown exactly as she was; Gauguin shows them with distorted proportions. Behind them, the green water of the lagoon sits before the blackness of the sea, highlighted with the white from the waves breaking.
From this painting, we see the rich history of Tahiti – one woman dressed in the traditional sarong while the other shows western influence. Gauguin went to Tahiti to discover the primitive and purity in Polynesian life and escape the modern France, but he almost immediately found and started painting the melancholy of the women and the colonial influence.
