About the piece
Painted in 1888 during his stay in Arles, Paul Gauguin’s portrait of Madame Roulin showcases his signature cloisonnist style. The work features flat planes of vibrant yellow and deep green, emphasizing form and decorative color over traditional perspective, reflecting the artist's move toward Symbolism.
