Gauguin in France


Thought I'd take a break from the run of Antony Gormley posts (I will put one up next week on his Angel of the North) to mark the end this weekend of the big Gauguin exhibition at Tate Modern, London. Today I'm simply having a look at some of his work with French subject matter. Tomorrow I'm taking a look at his more famous Polynesian work along with biographical material about his time in Polynesia.
