"Mahna No Varua Ino" (The Devil Speaks) is an 1893-94 woodcut print by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. Created during Gauguin's first stay in Tahiti, the work reflects his immersion in the perceived exoticism and mysticism of the island's culture. The title, which translates to "The Devil Speaks" or "Words of the Devil" in Tahitian, suggests a dialogue with the supernatural, a theme that Gauguin explored through his interest in the island's folklore and spiritual beliefs.

The woodcut is part of a series known as the "Volpini Suite," named after the Café des Arts, run by Monsieur Volpini, where Gauguin exhibited the series during the 1889 Exposition Universelle in Paris. This suite marked a significant departure from traditional European art for Gauguin, as he began to incorporate the simplified forms, bold outlines, and strong colors that would become characteristic of his Primitivist style.

"Mahna No Varua Ino" is notable for its stark contrasts and the use of black and white to create a dramatic composition. The image features a central figure that appears to be communicating with a spirit or deity, surrounded by other elements that suggest a narrative steeped in Tahitian mythology. The print is emblematic of Gauguin's exploration of the themes of life, death, and the afterlife, which were influenced by his readings of the Bible and other spiritual texts, as well as his interactions with the Tahitian people.

As one of Gauguin's most important graphic works, "Mahna No Varua Ino" has been widely studied for its innovative technique and its role in the development of the artist's visual language. The woodcut is held in several museum collections and has been the subject of numerous art historical analyses, which examine its significance within the context of Gauguin's oeuvre and the broader movements of Symbolism and Primitivism in late 19th-century art.
