There are six known copies of Femme cueillant des fruits et Oviri, all printed by Gauguin circa 1896-1897.
'Oviri' (the savage) is a term Gauguin used to refer to himself. The elements refer to the original sin, but with Gauguin these carry a broader association with fertility. Gauguin played a major role in the revival of the art of the woodcut.
