Delphi Masters of Art

Series · 42 books

By Caspar David Friedrich, Albrecht Dürer, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and more

The Post-Impressionist Paul Gauguin is now recognised for his experimental use of colour and synthetist style, seeking to achieve a “primitive” expression of spiritual and emotional states in his work. Gauguin is particularly well known for his creative relationship with Vincent van Gogh as well as for his self-imposed exile in Tahiti, where he produced stunning artworks that would influence the avant-garde development of art. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Gauguin’s complete paintings in beautiful detail, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
