This is a painting done By Gauguin. I saw his work in a movie called Paridise Found; which was a movie about his life. I stubbled upon this searching the web and i really liked it. It drew me in because Irisis are my favorite flower and i loved how he did this piece. It reminds me of a painting that Van Gough did.
Gauguin is an interesting fellow, and a contemporary of Mr. van Gogh too. Gauguin was a Post Impressionist too. Another contemporary of his, was Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) - what do you think of his works? Or Camille Pissarro (1830 – 1903)?
ReplyDeleteBut if they are Post-Impressionists - then WHAT WAS Impressionism - and WHO were the Impressionists?
