1890, Paul Gauguin, Harvest: Le Pouldu -- National Gallery (London)

From the museum label: In 1890 Gauguin stayed in the village of Le Pouldu in Brittany, western France. Inspired by this remote community, he painted a series of landscapes with simplified forms and clearly defined areas of colour. In the foreground women harvest wheat. Under a high horizon an expanse of intense blue sea is enriched to the left with purple.
