Myths surround one of the world's most popular yet least understood artists, Paul Gauguin -the painter of Vision after the Sermon (1888) and Where Do We Come From? What are We? Where are We Going? (1897-1898). One hundred years after his death, the life story of the French Impressionist and his development as an artist is traced from childhood in Peru to final years in the South Pacific by art critic and broadcaster Waldemar Januszczak.
