About this ebook
This study Art Book contains selected and annotated color plates of paintings from Paul Gauguin.Eugene-Henri-Paul Gauguin was French painter, sculptor, and printmaker. Gauguin's style developed from Impressionism through a brief cloisonnist phase (in partnership with Emile Bernard) towards a highly personal brand of Symbolism, which sought within the tradition of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes to combine and contrast an idealized vision of primitive Polynesian culture with the skeptical pessimism of an educated European. A self-consciously outspoken personality and an aggressively asserted position as the leader of the Pont-Aven group made him a dominant figure in Parisian intellectual circles in the late 1880s. His use of non-naturalistic color and formal distortion for expressive ends was widely influential on early 20th-century avant-garde artists.

Foreword
Eugene-Henri-Paul Gauguin was French painter, sculptor, and printmaker. He was the son of Clovis Gauguin, a liberal journalist from Orleans and Aline Chazal, a French-Peruvian (Creole) mother. He spent his childhood in Lima, Peru, between 1851 and 1855. In 1865 he entered the Navy and became an assistant pilot in the Merchant Marine. He traveled the Atlantic Ocean between Le Havre and Rio de Janeiro. An officer on board gave him a glowing account of the two years he had spent in Polynesia.
In 1871 he resigned from the Navy and found a job on the Paris Stock Exchange with the firm Bertin as stockbroker. He made a considerable fortune and led the life of a well-to-do bourgeois. He met Emile Schuffenecker and took up painting with him in his spare time.
In 1873 Gauguin married Mette-Sophi Gaad, from Denmark. The couple had five children, Emile (born 1874), Aline (Gauguin's favourite daughter, born 1877), Clovis (born 1879), Jean-Rene (born 1881), Pola (born 1883).
In 1874 Gauguin enrolled as a student in the Academie Colarossi (an art school founded by the Italian sculptor Filippo Colarossi in Paris). Soon he started to collect paintings. By 1880 he had his own studio, and his art collection included works by all the Impressionists. He showed one sculpture and seven oil paintings at the Impressionist exhibition in that year, his Study of a Nude (Suzanne Sewing) was favourable reviewed.
In spite of Monet's and Renoir's protest, Gauguin showed eight paintings and two sculptures at the Impressionist exhibition in 1881, and one sculpture and twelve paintings in 1882. These works were harshly criticised.
In 1883 Gauguin and Schuffenecker lost their job at Bertin. Gauguin regarded it as an opportunity to dedicate himself to art. He worked with Pissarro at Osny, and in 1884 at Rouen. Due to the growing financial difficulties, he sent his family to Copenhagen in July, and join then in November to stay near her family. He left for Copenhagen in 1885, where he unsuccessfully pursued a business career. He returned penniless to Paris and led a life of extreme poverty, working at odd jobs.
In 1886 Gauguin took part in the 8th Impressionist
