Gauguin: The Master, the Monster, and the Myth

 
 

Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin was a French Post-Impressionist artist. Unappreciated until after his death, Gauguin is now recognized for his experimental use of colour and Synthetist style that were distinct from Impressionism.

Gauguin was an important figure in the Symbolist movement as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer.
