EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of Levuka, on the Island of Ovalau in the Fiji Islands, during a significant moment in history - the annexation in 1875. The image provides a window into the past, showcasing the beauty and charm of this Pacific island at a time when it was undergoing major changes.
The scene is filled with historical significance as it reflects the impact of colonial powers on indigenous lands. The British annexation marked a turning point for Fiji, shaping its future trajectory and cultural landscape. The architecture and landscapes depicted in this print offer a visual narrative of this pivotal period in Fijian history.
As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to the 19th century when European powers were expanding their empires across distant shores.
