A key figure in the Post-Impressionist period, George Daniel de Monfreid is a unique artist whose work transports the eye to the heart of his interior landscapes. His unique journey as a naturalist painter is shaped by his special relationship with Paul Gauguin, which demonstrates a subtle pictorial dialogue dominated by color and light. A free artist, he will always remain outside contemporary pictorial movements but will have a decisive influence in the dissemination and affirmation of Gauguin's primitivism. This book analyzes the creative patterns that, from one artist to another, contribute to a founding modernity of the 20th century.
