Women, Animals and Foliage (Femmes, animaux et feuillages) is a 1895 ink by Paul Gauguin, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This woodcut print features a woman standing on the right, wearing a loincloth, with her hands held out. To her left, two women sit together, and above them, an animal is depicted. The scene is surrounded by foliage, with leaves and branches extending from the top and right sides. In the bottom-left corner, a circular symbol with the number "25" is visible. The entire image is rendered in black, with a rough, textured quality that suggests the use of a woodcut technique.
