La Belle Angele
By Gauguin

La Belle Angéle

Oil on canvas, 1889
92 x 73 cm (36 x 28 ins)

In La Belle Angele, as with his Vision After the Sermon, Gauguin attempted to give this painting away, this time to his sitter, Angéle Satre, wife of a future mayor of Pont-Aven, but she was horrified and refused to accept it.

Later, when Gauguin was raising money for a journey to Tahiti, the painting was sold at auction to Degas. It displays a wide range of motifs and influences: the use of bright color and divided brush-strokes recalls Gauguin’s Impressionist period. The background is Japanese, while the inclusion of the primitive figurine has been variously interpreted and may derive from Gauguin’s studies of ethnography during his travels and at the Paris Universal Exposition held in 1889.
