Tim Marlow looks at the painter Paul Gauguin, whose life was as colourful and varied as his painting.

Through some of his most famous paintings we explore Gauguin's extraordinary life as well as his attempt to escape civilization in an unspoilt Paradise on the other side of the world, where he felt he could create the unique 'primitive art' which he advocated.
