EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving captures the Natives of Tahiti on war canoes in all their glory. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring to life this scene from Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, dating back to 1844.
The image showcases the skillful craftsmanship of Sasso, who engraved this piece after William Hodges' original work. The war canoes are depicted with such precision that you can almost hear the sound of oars hitting the water and feel the wind in your hair as they sail through the Pacific waters.
These canoes were not just a means of transportation for the Tahitian people, but also symbols of power and strength. As they navigate through the waves, you can sense their determination and unity as they embark on a journey together.
This print is a window into a time long gone, when explorers like Captain Cook first encountered these majestic vessels and their skilled navigators. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and culture of Tahiti, preserved for generations to come thanks to artists like Hodges, Sasso, and Ferrario.
Let this image transport you to another world where war canoes ruled the seas and Tahitian natives sailed with pride and purpose.
