EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate hairstyles of the inhabitants of Taiti (Tahiti), taken from Jules Verne's "The Great Mariners of the 18th century" in 1879. The illustration, created by an unknown artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and traditions of this Polynesian population. In this image, a young girl with a serene expression proudly displays her traditional hairstyle. Every strand seems to be meticulously arranged, forming an exquisite pattern that reflects both beauty and symbolism. The engraving captures not only the physical aspect but also provides insight into the customs and way of life prevalent among these native people. Ethnography comes alive through this artwork as it transports us back to a time when such hairstyles were an integral part of daily life on Taiti. It serves as a testament to their deep connection with nature and their commitment to preserving their unique identity. Stefano Bianchetti's careful restoration work has ensured that this historical piece remains accessible for generations to come. As we admire this remarkable portrayal, we are reminded of how art can bridge gaps between civilizations and allow us to appreciate diverse cultures from around our world.
