EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in the world of the indigenous people of New Guinea. The image showcases an inhabitant of the Arfaque Mountains, a proud representative of this ancient civilization. The engraving is sourced from "L univers illustrious", a renowned publication from 1867, now part of a private collection. Although created by an unknown artist, its significance lies in its portrayal of human diversity and cultural heritage. The subject's striking features and intense gaze draw us into their world, inviting contemplation on their unique way of life. Their traditional attire hints at their deep connection with nature and ancestral traditions that have shaped generations. As we observe this portrait, we are reminded of Papua New Guinea's rich history as one of Oceania's most diverse populations. It serves as a testament to the resilience and strength exhibited by these native communities throughout centuries. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully preserved this piece for future generations to appreciate. Through his work, he ensures that these stories continue to be told and celebrated today. This print captures not just an individual but also represents the collective spirit and beauty found within Indigenous cultures worldwide. It stands as a powerful reminder that our global tapestry is woven together by countless threads like those found in New Guinea's vibrant heritage.
