[10h] Name this painting by Paul Sérusier (“say-rooz-YAY”) that was a touchstone for the post-impressionist Nabis (“nah-BEE”). This painting depicts a scene at the Bois d’Amour (“bwah dah-MOOR”) with bold splotches of yellow, green, blue, and red.

ANSWER: The Talisman

[10e] During the creation of The Talisman, this mentor of Sérusier instructed “Don’t be afraid to paint it as blue as possible.” This artist’s own paintings include numerous works from his time in Tahiti.

ANSWER: Paul Gauguin (“go-GAN”)
