"Chou Quarries at Pontoise - I" is an oil painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created in 1882. This work is part of a series of landscapes that Gauguin painted during his time in Pontoise, a period in which he was heavily influenced by Camille Pissarro, under whom he studied. The painting depicts the Chou stone quarries located in the Oise Valley, northwest of Paris, which was a popular subject among the Impressionist painters due to its distinctive geological features and the interplay of light and shadow.

Measuring 65 x 81.5 cm, the artwork is a testament to Gauguin's early exploration of the Impressionist technique, characterized by loose brushwork and a vivid color palette. The composition captures the rugged terrain of the quarries, with workers subtly integrated into the scene, emphasizing the harmony between man and nature. Gauguin's use of color in this painting foreshadows his later works, where color would become a dominant and expressive element.

"Chou Quarries at Pontoise - I" reflects Gauguin's transition from his initial career as a stockbroker to his commitment to becoming a professional artist. The painting is significant for its historical context, as it marks Gauguin's departure from the conventions of Impressionism towards a more symbolic and personal style that would eventually lead to the development of Symbolism and Synthetism. Today, the painting is held in a private collection or a museum, contributing to the understanding of Gauguin's artistic evolution and the broader narrative of Post-Impressionism.
