This Post-Impressionist masterpiece is known for its bold colours and symbolic representation, making it a striking addition to any art collection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePaul Gauguin's 'Vision of the Sermon (Jacob Wrestling with the Angel)' is a seminal work of Post-Impressionism and Symbolism, painted in 1888. The artwork depicts a scene from the Bible where Jacob wrestles with an angel, visualised through the fervent imagination of Breton peasant women after a sermon. Gauguin departs from traditional representation, employing a bold, non-naturalistic colour palette, dominated by a vibrant vermilion ground. The figures of the women are simplified and stylised, wearing their distinctive white bonnets, while the angel and Jacob grapple in the upper right corner, rendered in deep blues and blacks. A cow, seemingly levitating, adds to the dreamlike quality of the scene. Gauguin's innovative use of colour and form aimed to convey emotional and spiritual meaning rather than objective reality. This painting exemplifies his move towards Synthetism, a style characterised by simplified forms, flat planes of colour, and symbolic content. As a fine art print, 'Vision of the Sermon' brings a touch of avant-garde history to any interior. Its striking colours and spiritual subject matter make it a captivating focal point for a living room, study, or hallway, sparking conversation and contemplation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/still-life-with-teapot-and-bread-alfred-william-finch\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eStill Life with Teapot and Bread - Alfred William Finch — Alfred William Finch\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/products\/the-ladies-man-lhomme-a-femmes-georges-seurat\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Ladies' Man (L'Homme à femmes) - Georges Seurat — Georges Seurat\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/en-nz\/collections\/paul-gauguin\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Paul Gauguin →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Paul Gauguin","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57010667913551,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57010667979087,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":57010668011855,"sku":null,"price":220.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57010668110159,"sku":null,"price":290.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":57010668142927,"sku":null,"price":290.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57010668175695,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57010668241231,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":57010668273999,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57010668306767,"sku":null,"price":590.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57010668339535,"sku":null,"price":590.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":57010668405071,"sku":null,"price":590.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57010668437839,"sku":null,"price":730.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57010668503375,"sku":null,"price":730.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ White frame","offer_id":57010668536143,"sku":null,"price":730.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ XS Canvas (20x30cm) \/ -","offer_id":57010668634447,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ Small Canvas (30x40cm) \/ -","offer_id":57010668667215,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57010668732751,"sku":null,"price":380.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_878b1d05-e16c-4b4e-b770-1814a0d7c742.jpg?v=1770810236","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/en-nz\/products\/vision-of-the-sermon-jacob-wrestling-with-the-angel-paul-gauguin","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
