Still Life with Three Puppies

By Paul Gauguin, 1888
In 1887, Gauguin visited Panama and, then, Martinique, located in the Lesser Antilles in the eastern Caribbean Sea. Gauguin returned to France, in 1888, and stayed a second time at Pont-Aven in Brittany. The artist conceived the project of making Tahiti his next artistic destination; he set sail for Tahiti on 1 April 1891.
When Gauguin painted Still Life with Three Puppies, living in Brittany among a group of experimental painters, he abandoned naturalistic depictions and colors and broke away from Impressionism, declaring that "art is an abstraction" to be derived "from nature while dreaming before it."
This painting features three distinct zones: three puppies drinking from a large pan, a row of three blue goblets, and a still life of fruit in the foreground (shown on the front and back sides of the bag); they appear to be on a tablecloth. The proportion of all the objects is not in real life size. The incongruous scale and placement of these objects on a dramatically upturned tabletop results in a disorienting composition.
What is clearly evident from this painting is that Vincent van Gogh, who was Gauguin's fried at the time and was a great influence on his work. Gauguin drew inspiration from him, as well as his favored Japanese illustrated books and the illustrations that he found within children's literature. The simplistic style adds to the overall sense of not completely understanding what is being seen, as though we are looking in, rather than being part of the actual event.
