EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a diverse collection of artifacts from various Pacific Islands, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Oceania. The image features an assortment of objects carefully arranged on a wooden surface, each item telling its own unique story. Among the treasures displayed are two intricately carved combs; one hails from King Georges Sound and the other from Otaheite (now known as Tahiti). These hair combs serve not only as functional tools but also as beautiful adornments, reflecting the artistic craftsmanship of Polynesian cultures. A striking bracelet made from wild boar tusks, originating from the Sandwich Islands (now Hawaii), adds to the eclectic mix. This piece exemplifies both practicality and aesthetic appeal, showcasing how indigenous communities utilized natural resources in their jewelry-making traditions. Completing this fascinating ensemble is a cap from the Marquesas Island, exuding an air of mystery with its intricate design and symbolic significance. This headdress represents more than just fashion; it embodies cultural identity and traditional customs passed down through generations. Accompanied by handwritten manuscript text detailing their origins and descriptions, these artifacts provide invaluable insights into Pacific Island ethnography. Through this painting-like composition captured by Kenelm Henry Digby in 1810-17, we are transported back in time to appreciate the beauty and diversity found within Australia's Mitchell Library collection at New South Wales State Library.
