About the piece
Painted in 1901 while Paul Gauguin was living in the Marquesas Islands, this work serves as an evocative homage to his fellow artist, Vincent van Gogh. The sunflowers, grown from seeds sent from France, are arranged with deliberate care on an armchair, contrasted against the enigmatic presence of a Tahitian woman watching from the background. The rich, earthy palette and bold brushwork are characteristic of Gauguin's influential late period.
