¬¬¬ Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin (Two Tahitian Women – 1899) Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) was an extremely influential Post-Impressionist French painter. He went on a trip to Tahiti in hope of inspiration‚ he turned his focus to the beautiful and serene native women and these paintings have become very famous.

The Snow Goose The Snow Goose by Paul Gallico is a story about a misunderstood man who has been driven into isolation because of his physical deformities. Though his heart is pure and kind‚ people cannot seem to look past his disfigured appearance. He was only ever seen as "That queer painter chap that lives down at the lighthouse".
