Paul
Gauguin was a French post-Impressionist artist and he is recognized for his
experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinctly different
from Impressionism. Toward the end of his life, he spent ten years in French
Polynesia, and most of his paintings from this time depict people or landscapes
from that region.
His
work was influential to the French avant-garde and many modern artists, such as
Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. Gauguin was an important figure in the
Symbolist movement as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer.
