Nafea Faa Ipoipo (When Will You Marry?) by Gauguin replica in oil on canvas
Van Gogh Studio in Amsterdam specializes in hand-painted oil reproductions of iconic masterpieces. While our focus is often on Dutch and European painters, we also celebrate the vivid, emotional world of Paul Gauguin. His "Nafea Faa Ipoipo" is one of his most famous works — vibrant, symbolic, and deeply human.
A question of tradition and identity
Painted in 1892 during Gauguin’s first stay in Tahiti, the artwork portrays two young women: one in traditional Polynesian dress, the other in a Western-style gown. The painting explores themes of cultural tension, femininity, and colonial influence — all wrapped in Gauguin’s rich color palette and fluid brushwork.
Exotic beauty with emotional depth
"Nafea Faa Ipoipo" is more than just a tropical scene — it’s a reflection on love, modernity, and what is lost or gained in cultural exchange. Gauguin captures both the serenity and complexity of his subjects, inviting the viewer to pause and wonder about their stories.
