The Life Of Paul Gauguin: From Fraught Friendships To French Polynesia | Great Artists

The story of Gauguin's life is a tale of wandering. For many years he seeked something that could never be found. Born in Paris in 1848, Gauguin slipped out of his role as a stock broker to a life of painting, resulting in the break up of his marriage and years of artistic exploration, from Martinique with Charles Laval to Arles with Vincent Van Gogh.
