''Vision After the Sermon (Jacob Wrestling with the Angel)'' is an oil painting by the French artist Paul Gauguin, completed in 1888. The painting is notable for its bold use of color and its departure from the naturalistic representation of the world, which were hallmarks of Gauguin's post-impressionist style. It depicts a scene from the Bible in which Jacob wrestles with an angel, as imagined by a group of Breton women after a sermon in church.

The painting is characterized by its vivid colors, simplified forms, and the juxtaposition of the real world with the visionary scene. The foreground shows the Breton women, dressed in traditional clothing, who appear to be in a state of contemplation or prayer. Separated from them by a diagonally placed tree, which acts as a visual divider, is the mystical vision of Jacob wrestling with the angel, rendered in a more abstract and symbolic manner. The use of color is particularly striking, with the bright red of the ground symbolizing the spiritual fervor and intensity of the vision.

Gauguin's ''Vision After the Sermon'' is considered a masterpiece of Symbolist art and marks a significant step in his progression towards a more abstract and expressive aesthetic. The painting challenges traditional perspectives on religious representation and narrative in art, reflecting Gauguin's interest in the inner world of imagination and spirituality. It is also an early example of the cloisonnism technique, where bold outlines separate areas of vibrant color, which Gauguin and his contemporaries, such as Émile Bernard, were developing at the time.

The work is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Scotland in Edinburgh. It has been widely studied and admired for its innovative approach to form and color, as well as its exploration of the themes of faith, tradition, and the human psyche. ''Vision After the Sermon'' remains a significant work in the history of modern art, illustrating Gauguin's influence on the development of 20th-century artistic movements such as Primitivism and Expressionism.
