“Gauguin interests me very much as a man - very much.”
In a letter to Émile Bernard, from Arles, ca. 2 November 1888, http://webexhibits.org/vangogh/letter/18/B19a.htm <br class="br">1880s, 1888 <br class="br">Context: Gauguin interests me very much as a man - very much. For a long time now it has seemed to me that in our nasty profession of painting we are most sorely in need of men with the hands and the stomachs of workmen. More natural tastes - more loving and more charitable temperaments - than the decadent dandies of the Parisian boulevards have. Well, here we are without the slightest doubt in the presence of a virgin creature with savage instincts. With Gauguin blood and sex prevail over ambition.
