Fatata te Miti is an oil painting on canvas completed by the French artist Paul Gauguin in 1892. Painted during the artist's first trip to Tahiti, it depicts two Tahitian women jumping into the sea while a man spearfishes in the background. Fatata te Miti has been identified as a genre painting that epitomizes a romantic and exotic view of Tahitians. The painting is now held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.Painting: Paul Gauguin
