Painting Description
"Still Life with Jug and Red Mullet" is a painting by French post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created in 1886. This work is an example of Gauguin's early exploration into the still life genre, a subject he revisited throughout his career, which allowed him to experiment with color and form outside the constraints of depicting living figures or landscapes.
The painting features a jug and a red mullet, a common Mediterranean fish, arranged on a table. Gauguin's approach to the still life reflects his evolving artistic style, which began to diverge from the naturalism of the Impressionists to embrace more symbolic and synthetic qualities. The composition is notable for its bold use of color and simplified forms, characteristics that would become hallmarks of Gauguin's mature style.
"Still Life with Jug and Red Mullet" is significant in Gauguin's oeuvre as it marks a period of transition and experimentation. The artist's choice of everyday objects reflects the influence of Cézanne's still lifes, which Gauguin would have been familiar with during his time in Paris. However, Gauguin's unique treatment of the subject matter, with its flattened space and decorative quality, points towards the Synthetism he would later develop in collaboration with other avant-garde artists like Émile Bernard.
The painting is also an example of Gauguin's interest in the materiality of his medium. He often applied paint in thick layers, using a palette knife or brush to create textured surfaces that added a tactile dimension to his work. This technique is evident in the depiction of the jug and fish, where the impasto enhances the objects' physical presence.
"Still Life with Jug and Red Mullet" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world, contributing to the understanding of Gauguin's artistic evolution and the broader context of post-Impressionist movements. The painting continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and as a reflection of the artist's search for a new visual language that would eventually lead him to the bold experiments of his later Tahitian period.
