Skaters by Gauguin

Been looking at this early work by Paul Gauguin tonight. It was painted in 1884 but has such a unique composition and freedom to it. If only I can capture something similar in Ambrotype. That unorthodox look at the world but with a bit real life thrown in.

The artwork titled “Skaters in Fredericksberg Park” is an oil on canvas painting by Paul Gauguin, created in 1884. This piece, set in Amagerbro, Copenhagen, Denmark, represents the Impressionist movement and falls within the cityscape genre. It currently resides in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark.”
