It was among the work that Gauguin and his student Meyer Isaac de Haan created to decorate the dining room of the inn where they were staying in Le Pouldu, 98 near Pont-Aven. In the six weeks after their arrival in late 1889, they made dozens of ceramic works, woodcarvings, and sculptures, and covered the walls with paintings. This self-portrait, and one Gauguin did of de Haan, were 99 painted on a pair of cupboard doors. 100 </p> 101 <p> 102 At the time, Gauguin's likeness was described by friends as an "unkind character sketch"- a caricature. Today, it is the subject of intense analysis. Some see the artist casting himself in the role of Satan, others as Christ. What 103 are we to make of the imagery - the apples that precipitate man's fall from grace; the halo over Gauguin's disembodied head;
103 the snake that is both tempter of Eve and the embodiment of knowledge; the bold division into vivid 104 yellow and red, evocative of both hellfire and the heat of creation? Perhaps it is most likely that Gauguin is revealing his conception of the artist as hero, and - almost to challenge his colleagues - of himself, particularly, 105 as a kind of magus, a master who knows that he possesses the power of magic by virtue of talent and genius. 106 </p> 107 </div> 108 </div> 109 </section><!-- End Content Section --> 110</main> 111 <!-- ======= carousel ======= --> 112 <div class='container'> 113 <div 114 id='carouselControls' 115 class='carousel carousel-dark slide' 116 data-bs-ride='carousel' 117 > 118 <div class='carousel-inner'> 119 <div class='carousel-item active'> 120 <div class='row gy-3'> 121 <div class='col-lg-3 d-flex justify-content-center'> 122 <div class='card'> 123 <a href='/where-do-we-come-from-what-are-we.jsp'> 124 <img 125 loading='lazy' 126 src='/assets/img/thumbs/where-do-we-come-from-what-are-we.jpg' 127 class='card-img-top' 128 alt='Where Do We Come From?
