EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a glimpse into the lives of the Aborigines of the Blue Mountains in Australia during the early 19th century. At the top, we see portraits of men living along the shores of the Hawkesbury River (Nepean River), showcasing their unique cultural attire and facial markings.
In the center of the print, we are introduced to Spring Wood chief Aurang Jack as he proudly frames two of his wives. The intricate details and hand-colored elements bring this scene to life, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of Australian indigenous cultures.
Created by Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche for his book "Galerie complete en tableaux fideles des peuples d'Amerique et d'Australie," this lithograph provides a valuable historical record of Aboriginal life in this region. The Meissen edition from Germany showcases Goedsche's dedication to accurately portraying different peoples from around the world.
As we admire this image, we are reminded of the rich heritage and traditions that have been passed down through generations among Aboriginal communities. It serves as a testament to their resilience, strength, and enduring connection to their land. This print is not just a work of art but also a window into a fascinating chapter in Australian history.
