"Back View of a Breton Woman" is a painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created during his first stay in Brittany in the late 1880s. This work is emblematic of Gauguin's early exploration of Breton culture, which played a significant role in his artistic development. The painting features a local woman seen from behind, dressed in traditional Breton attire, which includes the distinctive coiffe, a regional headdress. The choice of perspective and the emphasis on the woman's attire highlight Gauguin's interest in the exotic and the traditional, themes that would continue to permeate his later works.

The painting is executed in Gauguin's evolving style, which began to diverge from Impressionism during this period. His use of bold outlines, flatter areas of color, and a more synthetic approach to form reflects his move towards Symbolism and the cloisonnist technique that he and his contemporaries, like Émile Bernard, were developing. "Back View of a Breton Woman" is not only significant for its aesthetic qualities but also for its contribution to Gauguin's ongoing quest to depict a purer, more unadulterated form of life and culture, which he felt was being lost in modern, industrial society.

This painting is part of a larger body of Gauguin's work that was influenced by his experiences in Brittany, a region that provided him with new and inspiring subject matter. The region's landscape, traditions, and people deeply impacted Gauguin's artistic output during this time, leading to a series of works that are celebrated for their innovative approach to color, form, and cultural representation. "Back View of a Breton Woman" remains an important piece within Gauguin's oeuvre, offering insight into the artist's stylistic transition and his enduring fascination with the idea of the 'primitive' as a source of artistic inspiration.
