Vision of the Sermon, Gauguin 1888
This painting, of Breton women observing
Jacob wrestling the angel, was one of the works that fed the collaboration at the yellow house.
The flat plane of red, with figures sort of floating about, the use of pure colors, and the use of imagination are breakthroughs evidenced in this work, and others from this time.
Van Gogh and Gauguin, and also Emile Bernard by postal connections, were creating one the greatest "synergies" of artistic change in history at this "Studio of the South". Read some interesting history (The Art Institute of Chicago) and criticism (author not named, Telegraph U.K.) here and here.
