  • hello, thank you, yes, it is Sicilienne by Fauré

  • Can you cite the music used in this, please? It's quite a lovely complement.

  • I suspect Paul would have had your guts for garters had he heard you call his work "impressionistic". 

  • @nicksum29 the FACES were impressionistic...yes, Paul worked hard to separate himself from the early impressionists he was influenced by. In his salon showing of 1880 he was referred to as a 'second tier' impressionist with work too closely resembling Pissarro. This enraged Paul and he began to pursue a different and unique style. I think he succeeded! Thanks for your comment:)

  • @urtheanswer :):):) yes! thank you again. I LOVE that melody too. Have a great weekend and all.

  • thank you very much. i just wanted to ask is there any quotation by Gauguin which says there must be a thin curtain between the painter and the model? could you please send me the recourse?

  • Absolutely Fascinating - Makes you really be more aware when looking at his stuff now.

  • thank you for commenting. It is the dream of every artist, a closer look!

    Merci

  • intresting... placed into my playlist of Paul Gauguin, thanks

  • poly pride

  • interessant om te zien (alhoewel sommige een beetje te ver gezocht zijn naar mijn idee) het is altijd leuk om kleine dingetjes te verstoppen...

  • You are right, Kari. This is charming!

  • thanks for the share, kari! I added this to my favs. :)

  • thanks Brunella for thinking of me :)

  • Interesting it seem. That putting on several faces was important to him. Is it not true that he often re-invented him self as part of his understanding of is free artistist spirit?

    Cool thank you sharing.

  • He thought he was 'saving' a dying civilization on canvas, he ran into one catastrophe after another, and felt he had arrived too late. The missionaries had already arrived ahead of him and told the natives to abandon their religious icons (and their dress code....). He did leave a significant mark in the art world despite the harsh misjudgments about him. Thanks for commenting, always appreciated:)

  • The 1960'sHollywood film about his life no doubt created some of these misconceptions. Great thank you for the lesson!

  • This overview of the use of faces in Paul Gauguin's work is powerful evidence of a possible reincarnation connecting two lives: 19th-century Gauguin and 21st-century artist Peter Teekamp. Reincarnation apparently transfers skills and habits to the new life. Teekamp, unaware of Gauguin's practice, hide pictures in his paintings for years. This is only one area of evidence that points to Peter as the reincarnation of Paul. From Paul Von Ward, author of The Soul Genome: Science and Reincarnation.

  • A feast for the eyes and mind. My favorite artist and I missed so many of those faces. Thanks.

  • thank you. Very happy you enjoyed it as well:)
