EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Law and Justice in Pitcairn Island" takes us back to the 19th century when a judicial visit was made to the home of the famous mutineers of the HMS Bounty. The image showcases various elements that define life on this remote island in the Pacific Ocean. Intriguingly, we see HMS Royalist anchored off the coast, symbolizing both law and order as well as a reminder of past rebellions. The islanders gather beneath a majestic banyan tree, their faces filled with anticipation and curiosity. A goat house stands nearby, representing sustenance for these isolated inhabitants. The topography is beautifully depicted with rocky cliffs contrasting against lush cocoa palms and potato plantations. As we explore further into this scene, we notice an old hiding place where secrets may have been kept hidden away. A significant moment unfolds before our eyes as members of the community sing their national anthem - God Save the Queen - bidding farewell to those leaving on a boatful reminiscent of Captain Bligh's departure from Pitcairn Island. The architecture reflects simplicity yet resilience; typical houses dotting the landscape alongside notable landmarks such as President's House and Christian's Cave. This engraving not only captures historical events but also highlights connections between Pitcairn Island and other parts of Europe through naval presence. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into an extraordinary chapter in history where law meets justice amidst isolation and natural beauty.
