EDITORS COMMENTS

The subject of this portrait is Louis Le Ray, the son of Gauguin's close friends in the picturesque town of Le Pouldu, located in the Brittany region of France. Gauguin was drawn to this area due to its perceived untouched landscape and traditional way of life that had not been influenced by modernization. The painting exhibits a unique artistic style known as "cloisonnism" characterized by thick lines that define the contours of both the figure and surrounding elements such as the chair and flowers. This technique draws inspiration from medieval and Byzantine enamelwork, adding an intriguing depth to the composition. Measuring at 21 3/4 x 18 1/4 inches (55.2 x 46.4 cm), this print allows us to appreciate Gauguin's exceptional talent for capturing human expression while incorporating elements from different art forms throughout history.
