그림 소개
Paul Gauguin painted The Large Tree in 1891, soon after reaching Tahiti; the canvas is at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland. It was among his earliest pictures on the island. Repelled by European materialism, he had left his family and stockbroking career. Here, stylized figures and strong colors were meant to suggest private emotions through symbols and mystery. Gauguin compared such arrangements to musical harmonies, writing that they did not represent anything real in the strict meaning of the word.
미술관의 설명
Disgusted with the materialism of European society, Gauguin abandoned his family and career as a stockbroker and departed for Tahiti in 1891. This canvas is among the first paintings he completed on the island. Its rich colors and stylized figures were intended to be both symbolic and mysterious, evoking private thoughts and emotions. “I obtain symphonies,” he wrote, “harmonies that represent nothing real in the absolute sense of the word.”
