Gauguin Hardcover – Download: Adobe Reader, March 15, 2013

I wanted large-size colour pictures and an entertaining background to the artist. This book hits the mark. Unlike some specialist art books, this succinct and readable text brings to life the somewhat tortuous career of Gauguin, illuminated at every step by his sumptuous art. A clear and logical progression becomes apparent. Although Guaguin himself hardly seems the most admirable person, the book creates interest by closely linking the events of his life and his emotional state to each and every painting.

It was what I wanted and expected. The photos of paintings are good and the text is interesting. It is colorful anda great addition to my art books. I will enjoy going through it again and again.

Its not as comprehensive as I'd thought it'd be - but it serves its purpose nevertheless with enough images of Gauguin's paintings.

Great photographic reproduction. Enjoyed the read but would have liked a bit more about technique.

Beautiful!

Awesome!

Was exciting to read and peruse the images. Thoroughly enjoyed it and have it as a conversation piece on my coffee table.
