Breton Eve
by GAUGUIN, Paul, Watercolour and pastel, 337 x 318 mm
This work is a mature example of cloisonnism, a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours. Cloisonnism was a movement created by Paul Gauguin, Emile Bernard, and Louis Anquetin, along with other members of the School of Pont-Aven.
