EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of an encounter between an artist and an Old Cannibal Chief on the Island of Aoba, New Hebrides. The colour litho, created by Norman Hardy in the early twentieth century, transports us back to a time when exploration and cultural exchange were at their peak. The image showcases the weathered face of the Old Cannibal Chief, his eyes filled with wisdom and experience. His intricate tribal tattoos tell stories of ancient traditions and rituals that have been passed down through generations. As we gaze into his eyes, we are reminded of the rich history and diversity that exists within our world. Hardy's meeting with this remarkable individual was undoubtedly a transformative experience for both parties involved. It is through encounters like these that artists gain inspiration to create works that transcend time and space. This particular lithograph was featured in "The Savage South Seas" a book written by E Way Elkington in 1907. Its inclusion in this publication serves as a testament to its significance as a historical document capturing a moment frozen in time. As we admire this artwork, let us reflect upon our own encounters with different cultures and appreciate the beauty found within diversity. This image reminds us that there is much to learn from those who have walked different paths than our own – lessons that can enrich our understanding of humanity as a whole.
