Gauguin

Paul Gauguin (1848–1903) was a French post-Impressionist painter and sculptor, known for masterpieces such as "Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?," "Yellow Christ," "The Spirit of the Dead Watching," and "The Vision After the Sermon." Born in Paris, France, Gauguin worked as a sailor in his youth before becoming a stockbroker. In 1873, he began to study painting and became a professional artist in 1883, participating in four consecutive Impressionist exhibitions. In 1886, Gauguin left Paris to paint in the town of Pont-Aven in Brittany. In 1889, he created "Yellow Christ." After 1890, Gauguin increasingly grew disillusioned with civilized society and sought refuge in the wilderness, finding solace on the island of Tahiti in the Pacific. In 1894, he produced "The Invocation." In 1897, he completed "Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?" In 1901, he left Tahiti for the Marquesas Islands. Gauguin passed away in 1903. Paul Gauguin, along with Vincent van Gogh and Cézanne, is considered one of the three major masters of Post-Impressionism.
