註釋In his own words, Paul Gauguin "painted and dremed at the same time." Yet he forecast, in the last two decades of the nineteenth century, much of what is basic to twentieth-century art. Painted subjectively, from what he remembered rather than from what he saw before him, much of Gauguin's work, in its simple lines and rich color, has a "primitive" look. Indeed, his wanderer's life took him to the coast of Brittany and to the Caribbean isle of Martinique, both far from the heartland of French culture, and eventually to the South Pacific, where he ended his days in the primitive society of the Marquesas Islands.--
