About the piece

Painted in 1889 during Gauguin's stay in Brittany, this work features the artist himself encountering a local woman on a country path. The piece is a hallmark of the Synthetist style, characterized by its bold use of color, heavy outlines, and flattened perspective, creating an atmospheric and symbolic scene that transcends traditional realism.
