Paul Gauguin Paintings And Titian Paintings

By Darren Hartley


The Primitivism art movement was spearheaded by Paul Gauguin paintings featuring bold colors, exaggerated body proportions and stark contrasts. Paul Gauguin was a French artist who enjoyed broad success near the end of the 19th century. He did not follow artistic conventions, having no formal art education, but took the path of his own vision.

Paul quickly became serious with painting, which started as a hobby. One of his works was exhibited in an important Paris art show in 1876. His work appeared among the works of Pissarro, Degas and Monet in an Impressionist exhibition in 1879. One of the most famous of Paul Gauguin paintings, the Vision of the Sermon was created in 1888.

Paul began work on creative and innovative art with the fusion of Tahitian culture with his own in 1891. However, these Tahitian pieces were met with mixed interest by Parisian art aficionados in 1893. It was in French Polynesia that one of the later masterpieces among Paul Gauguin paintings was completed. This masterpiece was a review of the life cycle of man.

It did not take long for Tiziano Vecellio to be considered as the leading painter of Venice. It took only his first major public commission to do that. His early training under Giorgione was responsible for Titian paintings to have that tonal approach to them. Likewise, this training was the culprit for the atmospheric and evocative style to his landscape artworks.

The pastoral landscapes among the Titian paintings celebrated the beauty of nature alongside love and music. One particular landscape, Two Satyrs in a Landscape, featured mythological figures in a lush landscape whose untamed beauty contrasted with a carefully balanced arrangement.

What was remarkable in the portraits among Titian paintings is not only their suggestion of the status and importance of their subjects but their inclusion of a psychological dimension to them. Sensitivity in the hands and face as well as monumentality of presence are among the aspects that connote status and importance. The instigation of a melancholic or dreamy mood in the subjects exposes the mental dimension.
