Sul dipinto
Con le parole del museo — in francese
Paul Sérusier devient, vers 1889, le théoricien du groupe des Nabis regroupant Edouard Vuillard, Pierre Bonnard, Maurice Denis, Emile Bernard et Félix Vallotton. Ces artistes sont à la recherche de la spiritualité à travers l’art. Cultivé, passionné de doctrines théosophiques, Paul Sérusier se lie d’amitié avec Paul Gauguin avec qui il partage une vision commune de l’art. Ce petit tableau, exécuté au Huelgoat, se caractérise par une palette sourde ainsi que par un graphisme fortement marqué.

Nella vita di Sérusier, Paul
Tutta la vita1889
Living with Gauguin at Le Pouldu
He visits Gauguin in Brittany several times and in 1889 settles with him at Le Pouldu for a long stay; from an academic student he becomes a modern painter.

early 1890s
Ideologist of the Nabis and a central figure of the early 1890s
He leads a whole movement, and many discoveries of Gauguin, who has left for Oceania, are attributed to him; the Nabis group (its name from the Hebrew word for “prophet”) proclaims a program of painterly Symbolism: emotions and symbols can be conveyed through the relationships of forms. The critic Albert Aurier calls him the first among the young artists in his article “The Symbolists” and promises him a great future.

He meets and befriends the Scottish artist Charles Hodge Mackie while Mackie and his wife are honeymooning in France.

“Pastorale Bretonne” in The Evergreen
