Krátky popis
A Frenchman in Tahiti: Gauguin s search for pristine originality
and unadulterated natureAfter starting a career as a bank broker,
Paul Gauguin (1848 1903) turned to painting only at age
twenty-five. After initial successes within the Impressionist
circle, he broke with Vincent van Gogh and subsequently when
private difficulties caused him to become restless embarked on a
peripatetic life, wandering first through Europe and finally, in
the search for pristine originality and unadulterated nature, to
Tahiti.The paintings created from this time to his death in 1903
brought him posthumous fame. In pictures devoid of any attempt at
romantically disguising the life style of the primitive island
peoples, Gauguin was able to convey the magical effect that both
the landscapes and life of the natives their body language, charm
and beauty had on him. Wearying of his reputation as a South Sea
painter, Gauguin finally determined to return to France, but died
of syphilis on the Marquis Islands before his departure.About the
