A woodcut print by Paul Gauguin, 'Title of the Smile' features bold lines and simplified forms, reflecting the artist's interest in non-Western art and spiritual expression.
Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) was a French Post-Impressionist artist known for his experimental use of colour and synthetist style. He sought to move beyond Impressionism, aiming for a deeper, more spiritual form of expression. His work influenced many modern artists, including Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. Gauguin spent a significant portion of his life in French Polynesia, where he created many of his most recognised paintings and prints. 'Title of the Smile' is a woodcut print featuring a composition divided into distinct sections. On the left, a quadruped, possibly a dog, stands beside a bird-like figure, with the words 'Le Sourire' (The Smile) above. To the right, three figures are depicted: one seated, one with a mask-like face, and another with their head bowed. The figures are rendered in a simplified, almost primitive style, characteristic of Gauguin's interest in non-Western art forms. The print employs bold, black lines and stark contrasts, typical of woodcut techniques, creating a striking visual impact.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
