About the piece

Painted in 1891 during Paul Gauguin's first journey to Tahiti, 'The Large Tree' showcases the artist's signature use of bold, flat areas of color and rhythmic composition. The scene depicts a group of women in traditional attire gathered near a thatched dwelling, shaded by the sprawling limbs of a magnificent tree that dominates the left side of the canvas.
