Gauguin - Loin de la route #[nn]

A lush, enveloping jungle frames a solitary, shirtless figure working at an easel deep in the tropical undergrowth — a quietly powerful image that sets the tone for this biographical graphic novel about Paul Gauguin. Created by Gaultier and Le Roy for Le Lombard, the album's subtitle Loin de la route ("Far from the Road") speaks to Gauguin's restless pursuit of a life outside convention. The richly detailed, green-saturated cover alone makes a compelling case for what's inside.
