Paul Sérusier (1864—1927) was a French painter.
He was studied at the Académie Julian and was a monitor there in the mid 1880's[1] In the summer of 1888 he travelled to Pont-Aven and joined the small group of artists centered there around Paul Gauguin[2]. While at the Pont-Aven artist's colony he painted The Talisman under the close supervision of Gauguin.[3]
He later taught at the Académie Ranson and published his book ABC de la peinture in 1921.
Sérusier's thoughts on art were collected and published in 1950, as Paul Sérusier: ABC de la peinture, suivi d'une correspondance inédite, Libraire Fleury, Paris, 1950.
