EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Aboriginal culture in Australia during the 18th-19th century. The image showcases an Aborigine man named Djacamel from Jervis Bay, along with Aboriginal women from Kangaroo Island. Their traditional attire and striking features reflect their deep connection to their ancestral roots. The photograph is a handcoloured woodcut created by Doms, based on portraits by Louis Auguste de Sainson. It was originally published in Auguste Wahlens' book "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples du Monde" (Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World) in Brussels in 1845. Through this image, we catch a glimpse into the lives of these indigenous people who have inhabited Australia for thousands of years. They represent a tribe and nation with its own unique customs and traditions that are deeply intertwined with nature. The print not only serves as a visual documentation but also as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists within different communities around the world. It invites us to appreciate diversity and learn from each other's way of life. As we admire this piece of art, let us acknowledge and respect the history, lifestyle, race, and travel experiences that shape our global society today.
