EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Gauguin's "Idole a la Croquille" a bronze sculpture with a mesmerizing brown patina and adorned with seashells. Standing at 34.6 cm tall, this artwork is an exquisite representation of the artist's genius. Originally carved in ironwood in 1893, this particular bronze version was cast in the 1960s. The intricate details and craftsmanship are evident as you observe the close-up shot of this masterpiece. The combination of metalwork and seashells creates a unique texture that adds depth to the sculpture. Gauguin's artistic style, often associated with synthetism and post-impressionism, shines through in "Idole a la Croquille". The seated figure, cross-legged posture, and human-like features evoke feelings of ancestry and genealogy. It symbolizes both beginnings and origins. The use of green color further enhances the connection to nature while also representing positive concepts such as growth and procreation. With no person present in the image, it allows viewers to focus solely on the art itself without any distractions. This print captures not only Gauguin's mastery but also highlights his contribution to French art during the late twentieth century. It serves as a reminder of his significant influence on European artists throughout history. Displayed indoors within a private collection, this photograph offers us an intimate glimpse into Gauguin's world—a testament to his enduring legacy as one of France's most celebrated artists.
