The Story in the Margin
"Maruru," meaning "thanks" or "offerings of gratitude" in Tahitian, is one of the woodcuts Paul Gauguin created for his Noa Noa suite, illustrating a ceremonial scene of offering drawn from his interpretation of Polynesian ritual life. Carved with a deliberately rough, primitivist technique that broke from refined European printmaking convention, the woodcut reflects Gauguin's search for a more elemental, symbolic form of image-making. The Noa Noa prints were produced in Paris after his first return from Tahiti, as he worked to translate his island experience into a new visual language.
Printed with archival giclée inks on smooth, acid-free 220 gsm gallery-grade fine-art paper; available in multiple sizes.
