La Femme aux Figues.
etching on Ingres paper, 1894. full margins. from the cancelled plate, after the plate was cut down, with the cancellation crosses on the cloth on the table un-inked or burnished out. 10 1/2 x 16 1/2"
Literature: Kornfeld 25.
According to Boyle-Turner, "This controversial print has been assigned to Seguin, to Gauguin, and even to a collaboration of both artists." The artist Armand Seguin was a close friend of Gauguin during the late 1880s and early 1890s. Based on the etched inscription upper left, "Chez Seguin à St. Julien," the scene takes place at Seguin's Breton home in Pouldu. Current scholarship regarding authorship for the print leans toward Gauguin, in its similarities to other of his Breton female portrait compositions.
