EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, created by Karl Joseph Brodtmann in 1836 for Heinrich Rudolf Schinz's Illustrated Natural History of Men and Animals, showcases a significant moment in the history of the Pacific. The image depicts Kamehameha I, the legendary King of Hawaii, also known as Tammeamea I, King of the Sandwich Islands, in regal attire, holding a staff adorned with feathers. He is seated next to Naba Leba, the Queen of Solor in Indonesia. The ethnographic portrait, which beautifully captures the cultural richness of the Pacific, is a testament to the extensive global connections that existed during this era. Kamehameha I, who ruled from 1810 until his death in 1819, was a pivotal figure in Hawaiian history. He united the Hawaiian Islands under a single monarchy, establishing a centralized government and laying the foundation for the modern Hawaiian state. Naba Leba, on the other hand, was a prominent queen from the Solor Islands in Indonesia. Her presence in this image highlights the far-reaching diplomatic and trade relationships that existed between the Pacific islands and other parts of the world during the early 19th century. Brodtmann's masterful use of color and detail in this lithograph not only provides a visually striking representation of these two historical figures but also offers a glimpse into the diverse and complex world of Pacific ethnography during this period. The image serves as a reminder of the rich cultural exchanges that took place between different parts of the globe, long before the age of mass communication and globalization.
