About the piece
Painted in 1889 during Paul Gauguin's stay in Brittany, 'The Gate' exemplifies his Synthetist style with its flattened forms and emotive use of color. The composition leads the eye from a weathered wooden gate across a lush green garden to a peasant woman seated before a traditional cottage, all set beneath a swirling blue sky.
