Oslo's National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design holds 6 works by Paul Gauguin (1848–1903) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Gauguin's Tahitian paintings use colour and form with a boldness that was startling to his contemporaries and remains powerful today. The scale of his ambition is best understood through original canvases, where his unconventional technique — rough surfaces, complex paint layers — is fully visible.
