Noa Noa: The Devil Speaks (Mahna No Varua Ino) (recto); Women Washing Clothes (verso), 1893-1894 https://botfrens.com/collections/44/contents/879151

When Gauguin returned to Paris from Tahiti in 1893, he conceived a book that would describe his life 
among the natives and place his South Seas paintings within a context. Gauguin produced ten woodcuts to illustrate Noa Noa. Printed by hand, sometimes on colored paper, these prints have a rough-hewn, coarse quality that enhances the subject matter. An experimental printmaker, Gauguin varied inks, papers, colors, printing pressure, and even modes of printing so that each impression is unique. He would sometimes ink the woodblock unevenly, creating a partially incomprehensible image on many first-state impressions and increasing the scene’s mystery and ambiguity, as here. In 1921 Pola Gauguin inked and wiped the block so that the subject is visible clearly.
