Paul Gauguin's Noa Noa Voyage de Tahiti 1947

Standard edition

Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin (7 June 1848 – 8 May 1903) was a French painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer, whose work has been primarily associated with the Post-Impressionist and Symbolist movements. He was also an influential practitioner of wood engraving and woodcuts as art forms. While only moderately successful during his lifetime, Gauguin has since been recognized for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinct from Impressionism.

Gauguin's Noa Noa Voyage a Tahiti, reproduced by Syndicat de la Propriete Artistique. Gauguin travelled to Tahiti for the first time 1891 in search of paradisical escape from Europe and was greatly inspired by the experience; upon his return to Paris he began work on Noa Noa, a book of woodcuts and text which reflected his travels.
