帽子を被った自画像
1893 - 1894
Gauguin painted this rugged self-portrait shortly after returning from his first trip to Tahiti, wearing a wide-brimmed hat that screams 'exotic adventurer.' Notice the painting hanging on the wall behind him? It features a reclining figure, likely a nod to his Tahitian works, showing off his new 'primitive' style to the Parisian art world. He wanted to look like a wild, untamed artist, distinct from the polite society he had left behind. The bold, flat colors and angular background are classic hallmarks of the Symbolist movement he helped pioneer.
