Quizá recordado por su gran amistad con Vincent van Gogh…
Este gran pintor francés, bautizado Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin, nació durante el verano de 1848. Considerado un post-impresionista, pero fue mucho mas. Fue un artista que siguió la búsqueda y experimentó con los colores y creó el sintetismo, un estilo que es totalmente distinto al impresionismo. Vivió en Polinesia diez años y pinto no solo a su gente pero también sus paisajes.
Paul Gauguin murió en 1903 posiblemente de un ataque cardiaco.

He may be remembered because of his close friendship with Vincent van Gogh…
This great French painter baptised Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin, was born in the summer of 1848. Although he is considered a post-impressionist, he was much more than that. He was an artist that pursued the search and experimented with colour, creating the Synthetist movement and style, something completely different from Impressionism. He lived in Polynesia for ten years where he painted the people and the scenery.
Gauguin died in 1903, possibly of a heart attack…

That was the time when so many things were happening and so many new trends and styles of making art were being invented, developed and well, some are still around today, like abstract art…
