Books of Travels



Paul Gauguin (1848 - 1903)

I have perused several books of travels with great delight in my younger days; but having since gone over most parts of the globe, and been able to contradict many fabulous accounts from my own observation, it has given me a great disgust against this part of reading, and some indignation to see the credulity of mankind so impudently abused.


Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels

    Gaugin is one of my favorite artists. His work is very warm yet also almost structural. Anyway, I'm following you now and looking forward to some interesting insights
