EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Natives of Easter Island, also known as Rapa Nui. The man and woman depicted in the image are adorned with traditional hats and long pierced ear lobes, showcasing their unique cultural identity.
In the background, a couple can be seen rowing an outrigger canoe or vaka, a common mode of transportation for the islanders. The scene is brought to life through handcoloured copperplate engraving by Sasso after William Hodges from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, giving us a glimpse into the daily lives of these indigenous people.
The intricate details in this print highlight not only the physical appearance but also the rich heritage and customs of the Natives of Easter Island. From their feathered headdresses to their skilled navigation on water, every aspect speaks volumes about their deep connection to nature and tradition.
As we admire this historical artwork, we are transported back to Florence, Italy in 1844 when it was created. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating diverse cultures from around world.
