Paul Serusier studied at the Académie Julian and was a monitor there in the mid 1880s. In the summer of 1888 he travelled to Pont-Aven and joined the small group of artists centered there around Paul Gauguin. While at the Pont-Aven artist's colony he painted a picture that became known as The Talisman, under the close supervision of Gauguin. The picture was an extreme exercise in Cloisonnism that approximated to pure abstraction. He was a Post-Impressionist painter, a part of the group of painters called Les Nabis. Sérusier along with Paul Gauguin named the group. Pierre Bonnard, Edouard Vuillard and Maurice Denis became the best known of the group, but at the time they were somewhat peripheral to the core group.	TALISMAN
MADELEINE DANS LE BOIS D'AMOUR	The relationship between Emile Bernard and Toulouse-Lautrec began to study Cormon Bernard until he was ousted by his teacher for insubordination. He quickly left the Impressionist pointillism to first develop and later synthetic, interacting with Gauguin. Bernard himself tells how he had to pose for more than 20 sessions to Henri perform his portrait, but the timeout was worth the Toulouse-Lautrec have managed to grasp the seriousness that always showed his friend, even if obtained on the basis of small touches that make the image look more elaborate. The figure in the foreground is simple and elegant, reminiscent of Manet's portraits, one of the artists who drew their attention before. In those early years, Toulouse-Lautrec launches its potential as a portraitist to represent the company with which it relates.
john keats (that's him over there) Asleep Asleep! O sleep a little while, white pearl! And let me kneel, and let me pray to thee, And let me call Heaven’s blessing on thine eyes, And let me breathe into the happy air, That doth enfold and touch thee all about, Vows of my slavery, my giving up, My sudden adoration, my great love!
