EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gauguin's "Croquis martiniquais" from 1887, a stunning piece that combines watercolor, charcoal, and pencil on paper. Measuring at 15.8x11.8 cm, this artwork is held in a private collection and offers a glimpse into the genius of Paul Gauguin. Gauguin, known for his influential role in post-impressionism, was a French artist who left an indelible mark on the art world. This particular piece captures his exploration of color and form through the depiction of a native Martinique woman. The vibrant colors bring her to life while showcasing Gauguin's mastery of capturing the essence of indigenous people. The sketch-like quality adds depth to this preparatory drawing, revealing Gauguin's meticulous attention to detail as he prepared for larger works. It serves as both an independent work of art and a study for future creations. As we admire this image, we are transported back to the late 19th century when Europe was captivated by exotic cultures from around the world. Gauguin's fascination with Martinique reflects not only his artistic curiosity but also highlights colonial influences during that time period. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured every nuance in this photograph while preserving its historical significance. Through their lens, we can appreciate Gauguin's contribution to art history and marvel at his ability to capture beauty in its purest form.
