EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph from 1855 captures the essence of two indigenous individuals from the Pacific islands of New Caledonia and Vanuatu. The Native of Balad (now Pouebo), New Caledonia, is depicted wearing a hat and shirt, exuding a sense of sophistication and modernity for the time period. In contrast, the native of Anaiteum (now Aneityum), Vanuatu, is adorned with a frond in their hair and a pendant on their necklace, showcasing traditional customs and cultural heritage.
The intricate details captured by J. Bull in this lithograph highlight the diversity within Oceania's population during the 19th century. Each individual's unique attire reflects their respective civilizations and traditions, providing insight into the rich anthropological history of these regions.
As we gaze upon this historical image, we are transported back in time to Captain J.E. Erskine's "Journal of a Cruise" in 1853. The faces of these natives convey stories untold, inviting us to explore further into their world through James Cowles Prichard's "Natural History of Man."
This print serves as a reminder of the beauty found in cultural diversity and encourages us to appreciate and preserve indigenous traditions for generations to come.
