Key Takeaway: Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin was a leading Post-Impressionist artist whose bold style led directly to the Synthetist style of modern art. In the late nineteenth century, poor and frustrated by a lack of recognition at home, Gauguin sailed to the tropics to escape Europe. While in Martinique and Tahiti, Gauguin was greatly removed by the people and surroundings and created some of his most famous art. He moved to Punaauia in 1897, after which he only returned to France once.
