About this work

Paul Gauguin's 1888 painting Captain Jacob shows a man seen in profile from behind, with a broad yellow-and-white garment across his shoulders. The loosely brushed background of deep blue and green contrasts with the warm red tones of his face and ear, and a few sparse branches appear at the left edge.
