EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, entitled "Natives of the Admiralty Islands fishing and sailing," offers a glimpse into the traditional way of life of the people inhabiting the Admiralty Islands in Papua New Guinea during the mid-19th century. The image, created by the skilled hand of Italian engraver Sasso from Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World," published in Florence, Italy in 1844, depicts a group of natives engaged in their daily activities. In the foreground, several men are shown fishing using a shovel-like tool to scoop up fish from the shallow waters. Their focus is intense as they work in unison, their bodies glistening with sweat in the tropical sun. Nearby, a canoe with an outrigger is anchored, its occupants likely preparing to set sail for another fishing expedition or to visit neighboring islands. The intricate details of the engraving reveal the rich textures of the natives' clothing, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, reflecting their unique cultural heritage. The lush vegetation and clear waters of the islands provide a picturesque backdrop to this scene of communal labor and cooperation. This illustration offers a valuable historical record of the lives of the indigenous peoples of the Admiralty Islands, providing a window into their customs, traditions, and daily activities. The meticulous craftsmanship of the copperplate engraving adds to its artistic and historical significance, making it a fascinating and important addition to any collection of world history or ethnography.
