The Woman with Figs is one of only two etchings created by Gauguin and was made in collaboration with his friend Armand Séguin, whose address is inscribed in the upper left of the print. Inexperienced with the medium of etching, Gauguin likely drew the composition himself but relied on his friend to help him with the more technically complex aspects of the process such as laying the ground and biting the plate.
