"Paul Gauguin's Armchair" (1888) is an oil painting by the Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. Created during a period of intense productivity and artistic exchange, the painting is part of a series of works that Van Gogh produced while living in the Yellow House in Arles, France. This period was marked by his collaboration with Paul Gauguin, a fellow artist and key figure in the Symbolist movement, who came to stay with him in late October 1888.

The painting depicts an empty armchair, often interpreted as a symbolic portrait of Gauguin himself. It is a companion piece to "Vincent's Chair with His Pipe," which represents Van Gogh's own space. Both paintings are characterized by their vivid color contrasts and expressive brushwork, hallmarks of Van Gogh's mature style. "Paul Gauguin's Armchair" features a fiery color palette with reds and greens, reflecting the exotic and passionate nature often associated with Gauguin, in contrast to the more subdued tones of Van Gogh's chair.

Van Gogh's choice to represent the artists through their chairs is indicative of his interest in Japanese prints and the use of everyday objects to convey deeper meanings about their owners. The chairs serve as stand-ins for the artists, with Van Gogh's being more modest and functional, and Gauguin's more luxurious and reflective of his travels and artistic inclinations.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic qualities but also for what it reveals about the relationship between Van Gogh and Gauguin. Their time together in Arles was a period of mutual influence but also of growing tension, which eventually led to the infamous incident in which Van Gogh severed part of his own ear.

"Paul Gauguin's Armchair" is housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, which holds the largest collection of Van Gogh's paintings and drawings in the world. The work remains an important piece in the study of Van Gogh's oeuvre, offering insight into his artistic vision and the personal dynamics between two of the most influential artists of the late 19th century.
