Part of the "Eyewitness Art" series, this book explores in depth the personality behind the work of Paul Gauguin. Also covered will be the important events, the key influences and the people - patrons, enemies, friends and lovers - who shaped the artist's life and work. Specially taken photographs of the works of art, with many close-up details provide true-to-life reproduction. Every page is packed with artefacts and memorabilia concerning the artist or art movement - letters and diaries, portraits of models, family and friends, sketchbooks, momentoes, palettes and artist's paraphernalia - all presented in a unique "private album". The series is created and compiled with the assistance of the leading museums, galleries, art historians and technical experts.
