Tahitian Landscape Paul Gauguin French 1892 Although the authorship of this picture was once questioned, cleaning and reexamination have securely demonstrated that it is one of a group of landscapes that Gauguin painted during his first Tahitian sojourn, showing small figures and a hut amid tropical greenery.

This was the first painting by Gauguin to enter the Metropolitan’s collection, by donation in 1939. View more. Tahitian Landscape. Paul Gauguin (French, Paris 1848–1903
