The King's Wife (Te Arii Vahine)

By Paul Gauguin, 1896
In 1895, Paul Gauguin left his France home forever and started his life once again in Tahiti among the natives, creating images full of poetry.
The King’s Wife is one of the most important of his second Tahitian period, the exotic, tropical imagery that fills his canvas.
It epitomizes Gauguin’s erotic fantasy of Tahiti. The young, naked Tahitian woman seems to become part of the fertile landscape. The central figure reclines on a grassy hill alongside several brightly colored ripe mangoes. There is a white cloth covering her groin, and she holds a large round fan behind her head.
The rich, vivid colors and complex compositional rhythms lend the picture an almost decorative resonance. "I don't think I've ever done anything with such a strong, impressive ring about it. The trees in blossom, the dog on guard, and the two doves cooing on the right ", Gauguin wrote in a letter to a friend in April 1896.
