EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the unique beauty and cultural traditions of the indigenous people of Papua Island (New Guinea and Indonesia). The coastal dwellers are depicted with intricate scarifications on their bodies, a practice that holds deep significance within their community. Their hair is adorned with combs, showcasing their attention to detail and personal grooming habits.
In the background, we see natives of Rawak island off Waigeo, further highlighting the diversity of cultures within this region. Each individual in the image exudes a sense of pride in their heritage and connection to the land they call home.
Created by Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche in the mid-19th century, this handcoloured lithograph is part of a larger series dedicated to showcasing the peoples of America and Australia. Through his detailed illustrations, Goedsche sought to provide an accurate representation of these communities for audiences around the world.
As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich history and traditions that have been passed down through generations on Papua Island. It serves as a visual reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating indigenous cultures for future generations to appreciate.
