EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by a French photographer in the 20th century, transports us to the enchanting Ducos Peninsula in New Caledonia. The image showcases a picturesque landing stage that gracefully extends into the vast Pacific Ocean. It is evident that this remote location holds historical significance as it was featured in La Depeche Coloniale, a renowned publication of its time. The composition captures the essence of this Melanesian territory with its breathtaking coastal landscape. The rugged coastline and pristine shoreline create a harmonious contrast against the calm sea. One cannot help but be drawn to the natural beauty surrounding this isolated island. However, beneath its idyllic exterior lies a darker history associated with penal colonies and deportation. New Caledonia served as an overseas department where prisoners were sent during colonial times. This photograph serves as a reminder of the complex relationship between colonialism and these far-flung territories. Preserved within a private collection, this print from eArchives Charmet offers us an intriguing glimpse into both past and present realities of New Caledonia. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry captured through photography, we are reminded of how images can evoke emotions while simultaneously shedding light on important historical narratives.
