About the piece
Painted in 1885, this striking portrait by Paul Gauguin captures Philibert Favre using the artist's emerging Post-Impressionist style. The work is characterized by its visible canvas texture and a sophisticated interplay of muted pinks, purples, and earthy tones in the background, contrasting with the dignified presence of the sitter.
