Throughout that summer he drank heavily and took morphine to alleviate the pain. As he was not able to paint, he spent his time making woodcuts and coloured monotypes. This particular kind of monotype is better described by the French term dessein empreinte ( printed or transfer drawing ). It was made by laying a piece of wet paper over a drawing in watercolour and gouache (and sometimes pastel), and then rubbing the back of the paper with a spoon so that it was impressed with a reverse image of the drawing.); eFitzwilliam Museum; French, out of copyright

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures Gauguin's "Te Faruru" in all its dreamlike beauty. Created in 1894, during a period of confinement due to a broken leg, this monotype showcases the artist's incredible talent and creativity even under challenging circumstances. Gauguin turned to woodcuts and colored monotypes as he was unable to paint during his recovery. The technique used for "Te Faruru" is known as dessein empreinte, where a wet piece of paper is placed over a drawing made with watercolor and gouache. By rubbing the back of the paper with a spoon, Gauguin achieved an impressive reverse image of his original artwork. The result is mesmerizing - an ethereal scene that transports viewers to Tahiti, one of Gauguin's favorite subjects. A nude Tahitian woman takes center stage, her body exuding sensuality and freedom. The vibrant colors and delicate brushstrokes bring life to the composition, evoking emotions beyond what words can express. Despite his physical limitations at the time, Gauguin managed to create something truly remarkable with "Te Faruru". It serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication to art and his ability to find inspiration even in moments of adversity. This print now resides at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK, where it continues to captivate audiences with its timeless allure.
