About the piece
Painted in 1901 during his time in the Marquesas Islands, Paul Gauguin’s 'The Ford' (La Fuite) exemplifies his Synthetist style with its flattened forms and non-naturalistic use of color. The composition follows two figures on horseback through a dreamlike landscape where deep blues and vibrant pinks create a sense of mystery and tropical atmosphere characteristic of his late career.
