The Impressionists with Tim Marlow

Gauguin (1x7)

:

Paul Gauguin is the focus of this episode. His life was as colourful and varied as his painting. Through some of his most famous work we explore Gauguin's extraordinary life as well as his attempt to escape civilization in an unspoilt Paradise on the other side of the world, where he felt he could create the unique 'primitive art' which he advocated.
