EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Hawaiian King Kamehameha I and his formidable warriors, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Hawaii. Created in 1878 by Emile Antoine Bayard, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of Kamehameha the Great and his court. In this illustration from "The World in the Hands" we see King Kamehameha I seated majestically amidst his loyal soldiers, exuding power and authority. Dressed in traditional attire, both male and female members of his court stand proudly beside him, adorned in vibrant Polynesian costumes that reflect their cultural heritage. The scene takes place outdoors against a backdrop of lush greenery, evoking the natural beauty of Oceania's South Pacific region. The king's regal presence is further emphasized by his suit and cloak while spears held by warriors symbolize their strength and loyalty to their ruler. This print not only provides a visual representation of Hawaiian royalty but also serves as a testament to the resilience and pride of its people. It offers us an opportunity to appreciate the traditions and customs that have shaped Hawaii's unique identity throughout history. Displayed within private collections today, this artwork continues to inspire awe with its portrayal of King Kamehameha I - an iconic figure who played a pivotal role in shaping Hawaii's past.
