18 February 1895 in a Paris auction house Drouot failed completely exhibition and sale of paintings by Paul Gauguin
Most of his life Paul Gauguin lived in poverty, depression and illness. His work is often not found in demand, the artist dragged out a miserable existence, broke with his family, wandering. For several years he lived in Brittany for Panama and Martinique in 1888, along with Van Gogh worked in Arles. The rejection of contemporary society have aroused interest in Gauguin's traditional way of life. In 1891 in Paris, an exhibition of paintings by Gauguin, and the proceeds from sold paintings he went to Oceania, the island of Tahiti. In Tahiti, Gauguin spent a very productive time writing 47 paintings. The new collection was exhibited at the auction house Drouot in Paris. The exhibition opened on February 18, 1895. Contrary to expectations, only nine have been sold and the pictures for a small fee. All money raised at the auction, went out to pay the auctioneers. With funds collected by friends, he was able to return after the failure of an auction in Paris in Polynesia. He faces a fine of 1,000 francs and imprisonment, he escaped by dying of a heart attack. After the death of Gauguin's series of works created by an artist in Tahiti, acknowledged masterpiece. His paintings are unique in decorative colors, the flatness and the monumentality of composition, generalization, and a stylized image influenced the creative pursuits of many artists of the early 20th century. |
