About the artist
Paul Gauguin
French · Post-Impressionism / Symbolism · 1848–1903
Gauguin abandoned his Paris career as a stockbroker in his mid-thirties to become a full-time painter. After working alongside van Gogh in Arles, he spent his most productive years in Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands, where his bold use of colour and non-Western subject matter directly influenced Matisse and the Fauves.
