Publishers Description: A book on post-Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin (1848-1903), written especially for young readers. The author tells the story of Gauguins life and work in a style which should appeal to those encountering the artist for the first time. The reader learns how Gauguin, a successful Paris stockbroker, left his family to sail off to Tahiti on an artistic quest that produced some of the late 19th centurys most beautiful and original paintings. Greenfeld conveys a strong sense of Gauguins personality and leaves the reader with an understanding of his struggle to become an artist of significance.
