About the Item
Gauguin came back to Paris in August 1893 from his first stay in Tahiti, In the luggage numerous drawings and preparatory work for a book designed by him. In collaboration with the writer Charles Morice, parts of the text "NOA NOA" were created in Paris in the winter of 1893-1894. The plan was for a preferred edition with 10 almost identical woodcuts, all of which were made in the winter of 1893-1894. According to the individual proto-prints by Gauguin, the artist left the artist to Louis Roy, who was limited to 25 to 30 copies. The planned book was never realized, only known is the famous manuscript "NOA NOA", now in the Louvre in Paris. In the course of the preparatory work for the new catalog, 15 copies of the Roy prints were still available.
