EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of cultural expression and beauty. In the image, we see a tattooed and bare-breasted young woman gracefully dancing the hula while seated on the ground. Her movements exude both strength and elegance as she embraces her Hawaiian heritage. The artwork is based on an illustration by Jacques Arago, an artist who traveled aboard the ship Uranie under Louis de Freycinet. It depicts a "Dancing girl of Maui, Hawaii" although it was mistakenly labeled as "Danseuse Javanaise". The handcoloured woodcut by Degreet after Arago showcases vibrant colors that bring this scene to life. Published in 1845 by Auguste Wahlens, this piece is part of his book titled "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples du Monde" (Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World). Wahlens was actually Jean-Francois-Nicolas Loumyer using a pseudonym. He was not only a writer but also an archivist with Belgium's Heraldic Department. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind its creation but also serves as a reminder of the rich diversity found across different cultures. Through her dance and tattoos, this young woman embodies strength, tradition, and individuality.
