EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the interior of a Morai or sacred cemetery on Kauai, Hawaii, Atooi. The image showcases a long house or mana in the heiau at Waimea adorned with intricately carved representations of the gods. Each carving tells a story and holds deep spiritual significance for the Polynesian people.
The handcoloured copperplate engraving by Bernieri after John Webber is a stunning example of artistry and cultural preservation. It was featured in Giulio Ferrario's Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World, published in Florence, Italy in 1844.
As you gaze upon this image, you can almost feel the ancient energy that permeates through every corner of this sacred space. The attention to detail in each carving reflects not only artistic skill but also reverence for their deities.
This snapshot into Hawaiian history offers us a glimpse into the rich traditions and beliefs that have shaped these islands for centuries. It serves as a reminder of the importance of honoring our past and preserving our cultural heritage for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
