EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Piteenee, a young woman of Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas Islands of French Polynesia. The image captures her youthful essence and Polynesian beauty. Dressed in an elegant white gown, she exudes grace and poise. Adorned with a cowrie necklace and a feather headdress, Piteenee embraces her cultural heritage with pride. The intricate tattoos on her limbs tell stories of tradition and identity. At just 18 years old, she is the granddaughter of Taiohae chief Gattanewa and holds a special place in Captain David Porter's heart as his girlfriend. This handcoloured woodcut by A. Vangauberghe after Captain David Porter was featured in Auguste Wahlens' renowned book "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples du Monde" (Manners, Customs and Costumes of all the People of the World). Published in Brussels in 1845 by Librairie Historique-Artistique, this artwork offers us a glimpse into the diverse cultures that exist around the globe. Piteenee's portrait serves as a reminder of the vibrant youth that exists within every society. Her femininity shines through as she represents not only herself but also countless other young women who navigate adolescence with strength and resilience. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are transported to another time and place where we can appreciate both the individuality and universality found within human experiences.
