Category:Derivative versions of Oviri

Oviri is a ceramic sculpture by Paul Gauguin he created in the winter of 1894/95 in Paris. Three plaster casts were made of it, of which at least one survives. This was used to create a number of bronze casts, one of which was placed on his grave in Atuona in 1973. There has been suggestion that Gauguin originally made a wood carving in Tahiti. If this is so it is undocumented and, like so many of his Tahiti wood carvings, lost. Wood carvings such as as may be found in this category are thus certainly modern copies.
