Paul Gauguin (French, 1848–1903) was a painter, print maker, and sculptor associated with the Post-Impressionist and Symbolist movements. He studied under Camille Pissarro and refined his artistic style amid other avant-garde artists in Pont-Aven, Brittany. In 1888, Gauguin moved to Arles in the south of France to join his friend Vincent van Gogh for two months, during which time they painted together. By 1891, Gauguin renounced urban values and traveled, hoping to experience a culture and place unmarred by Western ideals and priorities; these travels inspired a bold, new style in his artwork.

Paul Gauguin went to Tahiti in 1891 in search of new, exotic motifs, but also to escape European civilization, which he felt was artificial and spiritually bankrupt. This painting, Horse on Road, Tahitian Landscape, was painted the scene in Tahiti, showed the artist's characteristic Post-Impressionist style. In this painting, Gauguin used sinuous contours and intense colors to express the joy and serenity inspired by the lush tropical site. Tahiti would become Gauguin's home for most of the last twelve years of his life. He once said of his Tahitian paintings that he had been "eager to suggest a luxurious and untamed nature, a tropical sun that sets aglow everything around it...the equivalent of the grandeur, depth, and mystery of Tahiti when it must be expressed in one square meter of canvas."
