EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured stipple engraving captures the beauty and cultural richness of a Native woman from the Saltikoff Islands in the Ratak chain of the Marshall Islands. Her elaborate headdress, intricate flower earrings, traditional tattoos, and vibrant sarong showcase her unique identity and heritage.
The detailed illustration, originally created by Louis Choris for Otto von Kotzebue's Picturesque voyage around the world in 1822, has been beautifully reproduced in Frederic Shoberl's The World in Miniature. The delicate handcolouring adds depth and dimension to this portrait of a woman from a distant land.
As we gaze upon her striking features and ornate adornments, we are transported to a time and place far removed from our own. This image serves as a window into the rich tapestry of cultures that exist across the vast expanse of our world.
Through this artwork, we can appreciate not only the physical beauty of this Native woman but also gain insight into her traditions, beliefs, and way of life. It is a reminder of the diversity that exists among humanity and an invitation to celebrate and honor all cultures with respect and admiration.
