EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Inhabitants of Easter Island" takes us on a journey back in time to the 19th century. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this print showcases the inhabitants of Easter Island during a period of great exploration and discovery. The image transports us to this remote island in the Pacific Ocean, where we witness the daily lives of its indigenous people. The engraving beautifully captures their unique physical features, traditional clothing, and intricate tattoos that tell stories passed down through generations. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that it was originally created as an illustration for Jules Verne's book "The Great Navigators of the Eighteenth Century". This connection adds another layer of significance to the image as it highlights not only the geographical aspects but also celebrates those brave explorers who ventured into unknown territories. Through this print, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable curiosity and thirst for knowledge. It serves as a testament to our innate desire to explore new lands and understand different cultures. The inhabitants depicted here symbolize resilience and adaptability in an ever-changing world.
