{"product_id":"paul-gauguin-la-belle-angele-fine-art-print","title":"Paul Gauguin — La Belle Angèle | Fine Art Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Breton woman sits with her hands clasped in her lap inside a large gold-ringed circle, set into the picture like a medallion. She wears a white coiffe, a wide white lace collar, a dark bodice with rows of round ornaments, a red skirt with a patterned panel and a small cross on a cord. Outside the ring, pink and white blossoms drift across a blue ground, and a gold figure-shaped pot stands at the left. LA BELLE ANGELE is lettered at the lower left, signed and dated 89.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMarie-Angélique Satre, who ran a hotel in Pont-Aven, recalled around 1920 that she disliked the portrait when Gauguin showed it to her and told him to take it away. Setting her inside a ring against a decorative ground borrows a device from Japanese prints. Edgar Degas bought the canvas in 1891; Ambroise Vollard gave it to the French national collections in 1927, and it now hangs in the Musée d'Orsay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil on canvas, 1889, Musée d'Orsay, Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePaul Gauguin (1848–1903) gave up a career as a Paris stockbroker to paint, and in 1885 left his wife and five children to pursue it. He led the Pont-Aven painters toward flat colour and simplified form, and worked beside Van Gogh in Arles in 1888. From 1891 he lived mostly in Tahiti and, from 1901, the Marquesas, where Polynesian figures, colour and myth became his subject. There he took girls of thirteen and fourteen as his 'wives': by his own account Teha'amana, whose face recurs in the Tahitian paintings of 1891–93, was thirteen. His synthetist style shaped the Nabis, Fauvism and Expressionism; in recent decades historians and museums have reassessed him for this sexual exploitation of Polynesian girls and for the colonial fantasy of Tahiti his work helped build. His paintings are held by the Musée d'Orsay, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
