Features: In the history of Western art, Paul Gauguin is one of the most solitary artists. His rebellious paintings express this solitude, while the letters he wrote to his wife and friends reveal it. The letters compiled in this book present a complete picture of Gauguin to the world—an “uncivilized” man full of doubts about civilization, an apostle filled with inner suffering, yearning for understanding, and desperately seeking the truth of art—a martyr who endured poverty and hardship until his silent passing.
