From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Portrait of Madame Roulin is an oil on canvas portrait by Paul Gauguin of Augustine Roullin (née Pellicot; 1851-1930), wife of the postman Joseph Roulin (1841-1903). It is now in the St Louis Museum of Art.[1]

It was painted at the end of November 1888 during Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh's joint stay in Arles, where the latter artist also painted the Roulin family.[2]
