The picture “Naked” was presented in 1881 at the Sixth Impressionist Exhibition. On it, the painter portrayed a young brunette sitting on white linen sheets. Behind her, blue and green veils are visible, on the wall hang a mandolin and a striped carpet. The colors of the latter are in harmony with the main scale of the picture. It should be noted that this is one of the early examples of Gauguin’s interest in depicting the patterns and structure of tissue.
The individual handwriting of the artist will manifest a little later, but already in this work his departure from traditional painting is noticeable. The picture is also different from other impressionistic paintings with a similar plot: hardly a woman with a sad look, perched on the edge of the sofa and bent over sewing, is similar to the blooming women of Renoir blossoming with beauty and beauty.
It can be seen that Gauguin tries to express not only the visible bodily shell of people, but also to convey their soul and experiences.
