The Talisman, 1888

"The Talisman" is a small, square painting that depicts a forest scene in muted colors. It is considered an important work in the history of modern art because it was a key influence on the development of the Fauvist movement and the broader Post-Impressionist movement.

Paul Sérusier was a French painter who was a pioneer of abstract art and an inspiration for the avant-garde Nabi movement, Synthetism and Cloisonnism. The painting, that became known as The Talisman, was created under the close supervision of Gauguin. It is an extreme exercise in Cloisonnism that approximates to pure abstraction.
