Born 177 years ago today, Paul Gauguin fled civilization for paradise, only to find beauty and darkness in equal measure.

His life was a canvas of controversy and moral shadow.

(a thread 🧵 ) Image
Paul Gauguin was born in Paris on June 7, 1848, but his early years were anything but ordinary. His family fled France for Peru after Napoleon III’s coup, living in Lima’s tropical splendor until his father’s death.

This early taste of the exotic would forever haunt his art. Image
Back in France, Gauguin lived a conventional life at first: a stockbroker with a wife and five kids.

But beneath the surface, he was restless.

He painted on weekends, mentored by Camille Pissarro, absorbing Impressionism’s light and color but craving something deeper. Image

May 21 marks the birthday of Albrecht Dürer, the German Renaissance master who revolutionized art.

554 years later, his genius still shapes the art world.

Let’s explore why 🧵👇 St. Jerome in His Study (1521)
Born in Nuremberg, Albrecht Dürer trained as a goldsmith’s son before mastering painting and printmaking. His Self-Portrait (1493), at just 22, reveals an artist already defying convention with bold confidence. Image
Dürer’s engravings, like Knight, Death, and the Devil (1513), are meticulous marvels. Every line weaves allegory and realism, elevating printmaking into a medium of profound art. Image
