Biography of Paul Gauguin

,few people know that he once worked on ship and then fulfilled his military service in French Navy. When he was at the age of 23, he got a well paid job as a stockbroker, besides that he married a beautiful Danish woman.

In early phase, although Gauguin sought the simplification of the form and decoration with color, he hadn't gotten rid of the technique of Impressionism yet.
Having been tired of the life in city, Paul Gauguin yearned for the customs and art of life in primitive tribes. Hence, regardless of everything he took a long journey to live and paint in the island of Tahiti in South Pacific Ocean.
He gradually abondonded his realisticism style until he passed away. So, oil painting lovers are very interested in Paul Gauguins biography, and reproductions of his paintings for sale in gallery are prevalent.

Gauguin depicted the aboriginals and their life with great enthusiasm in his later oil paintings. Those Gauguin paintings composed of lines and strong colors are bearing strong sense of subjective color and decorating effect.

Artworks are abstract as well as specific. Gauguin differentiated from other Impressionist painters in his features in abstraction: pure colour, synthetical method, decoration of lines and without profundity. These features are summarized as symbolism（Synthetism）by himself and litterateurs.

Paul Gauguin Biography

b. June 7, 1848, Paris, Fr.--d. May 8, 1903,
Atuona, Hiva Oa, Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia

One of the leading French painters of the Postimpressionist period, whose development of a conceptual method of representation was a decisive step for 20th-century art. After spending a short period with Vincent van Gogh in Arles (1888), he increasingly abandoned imitative art for expressiveness through color.

From 1891 Paul Gauguin (Eugène-Henri-) lived and worked in Tahiti and elsewhere in the South Pacific. His masterpieces include the early Vision After the Sermon (1888) and Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? (1897-1898).
Although his main achievements were to lie elsewhere, Gauguin was, to use a fanciful metaphor, nursed in the bosom of Impressionism. His attitudes to Gauguin art were deeply influenced by his experience of its first exhibition, and Paul Gauguin himself participated in those of 1880, 1881 and 1882. The son of a French journalist and a Peruvian Creole, whose mother had been a writer and a follower of Saint-Simon, Gauguin was brought up in Lima, joined the merchant navy in 1865, and in 1872 began a successful career as a stockbroker in Paris.
In 1874 Paul Gauguin saw the first Impressionist exhibition, which completely entranced him and confirmed his desire to become a painter. He spent some 17,000 francs on works by Manet, Monet, Sisley, Pissarro, Renoir and Guillaumin. Pissarro took a special interest in his attempts at painting, emphasizing that Paul Gauguin should `look for the nature that suits your temperament', and in 1876 Gauguin had a landscape painting in the style of Pissarro accepted at the Salon. In the meantime Pissarro had introduced him to Cézanne, for whose paintings Paul Gauguin conceived a great respect---so much so that the older man began to fear that he would steal his `sensations'. All three worked together for some time at Pontoise, where Pissarro and he drew pencil sketches of each other (Cabinet des Dessins, Louvre).

In 1883-84 the bank that employed him got into difficulties and Gauguin was able to paint every day. He settled for a while in Rouen, partly because Paris was too expensive for a man with five children, partly because he thought it would be full of wealthy patrons who might buy Gauguin paintings. Rouen proved a disappointment, and he joined his wife Mette and children, who had gone back to Denmark, where she had been born. His experience of Denmark was not a happy one and, having returned to Paris, he went to paint in Pont-Aven, a well-known resort for artists. - French famous oil painting for sale on oilpaintingfactory.com and Paul Gauguin Biography, The Yellow Christ, Spirit of the Dead Watching, Gauguin painting Where Do We Come From?

Gauguin oil painting - The Yellow Christ

Here, he stopped working exclusively out-of-doors, as Pissarro had taught him, and generally began to adopt a more independent line. His meeting with van Gogh, the influence of Seurat, the doctrines of Signac, and a rediscovery of the merits of Degas--especially in his pastels--all combined with his own streak of megalomania to produce a style that had little in common with the thoughtful lyricism of the painting of his erstwhile mentor Pissarro. Monet confessed to a liking of his Jacob Wrestling with the Angel (1888; Gauguin National Gallery of Scotland), which Paul Gauguin saw at the exhibition he organized in 1891 to finance his projected excursion to places where he could live on `ecstasy, calmness and art'; the proceeds amounted to 10,0000 francs, some of it coming from Degas, who bought several Gauguin paintings. There were still evident in these new Gauguin paintings traces of pure Impressionism, and of the very clear influence of Cézanne (as in the Portrait of Marie Lagadu, 1890; Art Institute of Chicago)--a fact pointed up by a Cézanne still life owned by Gauguin which is shown behind her--but basically this period marked the parting of the ways between Paul Gauguin and Impressionism, The Yellow Christ, Spirit of the Dead Watching, Gauguin Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?
Gauguin painting has all the appearance of a flight from civilization, of a search for new ways of life, more primitive, more real and more sincere.

Analysis of Best Known Paintings List by Paul Gauguin

-- Author: Lewis L., Toperfect Director.

Gauguin painting - The Yellow Christ
The whole picture of the oil painting is supported by the figure and cross in the foreground. All the images are united in the bright and brief picture.
The cross in the painting of The Yellow Christ was depicted according to a dyed wood statue of the suffering Christ in nearby church. However, the painter sought an expression of emotion. To convey the “mysterious core of thought” is Gauguin’s target. Gauguin was not a peasant, but he used his painting The Yellow Christ to convey the “simple and innocent characteristics brimming with a strong rural flavor and superstitic color” which he found in the people of Tahiti. Thus, he used simplified composition, rough outline and strong colors to form a visual impression on the simple and devout religious belief.

Gauguin paintings - Spirit of the Dead Watching
Gauguin regarded this painting as one of his best works. Spirit of the Dead Watching is originated from life experience. The yellow sheet connects the purple background, orange human body and the blue bedspread. It makes people feel as if that to be tribal people as a disembodied spirits flickering. The nude in Spirit of the Dead Watching is realistic and symbolic, which makes the nude painting covered in a superstitic and horrible halo.

Gauguin painting - Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?
In February 1897, Gauguin finished his largest oil painting “Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?”. In Gauguin’s words, the meaning of this painting is far beyond that of previous paintings supplies, he can’t create a painting as valuable as this one any more.
Although “Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?” contains intermediate tones, the scene is entirely in stable blue and green. All of the nudes in bright orange are standing out from the scenery.
