"Pond with Ducks (also known as Girl Amusing Herself)" is a painting by French post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created during a period when the artist was exploring themes of rural tranquility and the idyllic life away from the industrialization of cities. This work is representative of Gauguin's transition from his earlier Impressionist influences to the more symbolist and synthetist approach that would come to define his later works. The painting features a young girl, possibly a native of the region where Gauguin was residing, engaged in the simple pastime of playing with ducks at a pond. The use of bold colors, simplified forms, and a focus on the emotional and spiritual aspects of the scene reflect Gauguin's evolving artistic philosophy.

The exact date of creation for "Pond with Ducks" is not well-documented, but it likely falls into the period of the late 1880s to the 1890s, a time when Gauguin was increasingly distancing himself from the Impressionist circle and seeking a new direction in his art. The painting's composition, with its flattened perspective and decorative qualities, hints at the influence of Japanese prints and the broader Japonisme movement, which was popular among avant-garde artists in Europe at the time.

"Pond with Ducks" is significant in the context of Gauguin's oeuvre as it captures the artist's burgeoning interest in depicting rural life and his pursuit of an Edenic vision that would later culminate in his travels to Tahiti. The work is emblematic of Gauguin's quest for a more profound and spiritual connection with nature and the simpler way of life that he believed was being lost in the modern world.

As with many of Gauguin's paintings, "Pond with Ducks" is also notable for its exploration of the exotic and the artist's interpretation of the lives of people living in harmony with their natural surroundings. The painting is a testament to Gauguin's enduring legacy as an artist who challenged the conventions of European painting and sought to express the intangible qualities of human experience through his bold use of color and form.
