''Mahana No Atua'' (English: ''Day of the Gods'') is an 1894 oil on canvas painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. Created during Gauguin's first stay in Tahiti, the painting is a quintessential example of his Primitivist style, which sought to escape the confines of European civilization and depict an idyllic vision of a more natural and primordial lifestyle. ''Mahana No Atua'' is notable for its rich use of color, symbolic content, and the fusion of Tahitian motifs with European artistic traditions.

The painting depicts a Tahitian mythological scene set against a backdrop of a tranquil sea and a vivid sky. In the foreground, three women are arranged in a frieze-like composition, with their gestures and expressions suggesting a narrative of religious or mythological significance. The central figure is in a state of repose, possibly representing a deity or a figure of worship. The figures are flanked by a tree to the left and a statue, possibly an idol, to the right, which further emphasizes the spiritual or sacred nature of the scene.

''Mahana No Atua'' reflects Gauguin's interest in the spiritual and cultural life of the Tahitian people, as well as his desire to capture the essence of their perceived connection to the natural world. The painting is also an example of Gauguin's experimentation with the flatness of the picture plane and the decorative qualities of line and color, which would influence later artists and movements, such as the Nabis and Fauvism.

The work is held in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago and remains a significant piece in the study of Gauguin's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century European art's engagement with non-Western cultures. ''Mahana No Atua'' continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and is frequently included in discussions of cultural appropriation, colonialism, and the representation of the 'exotic' in Western art.
