EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is taken from the 'Voyage dans le Pacifique' or 'Journey in the Pacific Ocean' published in Paris in 1822. The image, Plate XI, was produced by the renowned artist and explorer Louis Choris and depicts an intriguing moment during the expedition of Otto von Kotzebue's voyage through the Pacific Ocean between 1815 and 1818. The scene portrays indigenous inhabitants of Easter Island, a remote and mysterious place in the Pacific. A couple, dressed in simple loincloths, are shown in the foreground, gazing intently at the explorers. In the background, other indigenous people are shown working in the fields, tending to plants such as bananas and plantains, which grow abundantly on the island. Easter Island, famous for its enigmatic statues, was a fascinating discovery for the European explorers of the time. This illustration offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of the island's inhabitants, providing valuable insights into their culture and traditions. The detail and vibrancy of the engraving are truly remarkable, capturing the essence of the tropical environment and the people who called it home. The use of color adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a stunning and evocative representation of a time and place long past.
