EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed illustration of a double canoe seen at Amsterdam in the South Seas during the years 1768-75. Created by William Hodges, an accomplished artist and explorer, this drawing is part of a collection housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. The image provides an aerial view as well as a side view of the vessel, allowing viewers to appreciate its intricate design and structure. With precise measurements and handwritten explanations, this illustration offers valuable insights into boatbuilding techniques employed during Captain Cook's Second Voyage (1772-1775). It serves as a testament to the spirit of expedition and exploration that characterized this era. Amsterdam Island, Tonga, specifically Tongatapu, served as inspiration for this indigenous Polynesian watercraft. The diagram highlights various features such as scale proportions and nautical details essential for understanding its functionality. Transporting us back to the 18th century, this artwork captures both historical significance and artistic excellence. Its inclusion in Admiral Isaac Smith's original sketches further enhances its value. As we delve into this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded not only of our fascination with maritime history but also our appreciation for meticulous craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
