"Frise de Masques" is a notable artwork by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created in 1891. This piece is emblematic of Gauguin's exploration of non-Western cultures and his quest for a primitive form of expression, themes that are recurrent throughout his oeuvre. "Frise de Masques" translates to "Frieze of Masks" in English, and true to its name, the work features a series of mask-like faces that reflect Gauguin's interest in and inspiration from Oceanic and African art forms, which he encountered through museums and exhibitions in France.

The artwork is part of Gauguin's broader experimentation with different materials and forms, including wood carving and ceramics, demonstrating his departure from traditional painting and his innovative approach to art-making. "Frise de Masques" is particularly significant for its role in the development of Primitivism in European art, a movement that sought to escape the confines of Western artistic conventions by drawing inspiration from what were considered to be more 'primitive' cultures.

Gauguin's time in Tahiti, which began in 1891, the same year "Frise de Masques" was created, marked a pivotal period in his career. His experiences in the South Pacific profoundly influenced his artistic vision, leading to the creation of works that were rich in symbolism and characterized by bold colors, simplified forms, and a deep sense of mysticism. "Frise de Masques" can be seen as a precursor to this phase of Gauguin's work, embodying his fascination with the exotic and the unknown.

The piece is also reflective of Gauguin's complex relationship with the concept of identity. Through the depiction of masks, Gauguin explores themes of concealment and revelation, suggesting that identity can be both hidden and expressed through art. This duality is a key aspect of Gauguin's artistic philosophy and is evident in much of his work from this period.

Today, "Frise de Masques" is recognized as an important work in Gauguin's oeuvre, offering insight into the artist's evolving style and his contributions to the Primitivism movement. It remains a subject of study for art historians and scholars interested in the intersections of culture, identity, and artistic expression in late 19th-century European art.
