EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nouvelle-Guinee. Pirogues Papoues" showcases the traditional dug-out canoes, known as pirogues, used by fishermen in Papua New Guinea during the early 1900s. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. The photograph captures a vibrant scene with several pirogues floating gracefully on the Pacific Ocean waters. The dark-colored canoes stand out against the bright backdrop of a sunny day, highlighting their importance in local fishing communities. A group of indigenous men proudly pose alongside their boats, representing the strong connection between man and nature that has been passed down through generations. This piece is part of a larger collection called "Autour du Monde - Fascicule XLI" published in Paris by L. Boulanger in 1900. It offers readers a glimpse into different cultures and geographical features around the world through stunning photogravures like this one. The print transports viewers to Papua New Guinea's picturesque coastline, where these traditional fishing boats are still used today. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions that continue to shape communities across Polynesia.
