EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the essence of Mai or Omai, a young Ra'iatean man from the Society Islands. Dressed in an elegant turban and cape, he exudes an air of mystery and intrigue. Omai holds a significant place in history as the second Pacific Islander to ever visit Europe, following in the footsteps of Ahu-toru. Created by Karl Joseph Brodtmann for Heinrich Rudolf Schinz's Illustrated Natural History of Men and Animals in 1836, this lithograph showcases Brodtmann's exceptional talent as an engraver. The black and white composition adds depth and intensity to Omai's portrait, highlighting his unique features. Omai's journey from Tahiti to Europe made him somewhat of a celebrity during his time. His presence sparked curiosity about English Polynesia and its people among Europeans who were fascinated by exotic cultures. This print serves as a testament to Omai's significance as it immortalizes his image for generations to come. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into the world of Omai and gain insight into the rich cultural heritage of Ra'iatea. It is a reminder that even centuries ago, individuals like Omai played crucial roles in bridging different civilizations through their travels and interactions with foreign lands. This lithograph stands not only as a beautiful piece of art but also as an important historical document that sheds light on the early exploration between Europe and the Pacific Islands.
