Chatton, Native Kanak Schoolmaster; Some Account of New Caledonia
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing photograph from the late 1870s, depicting a Kanak schoolmaster named Chatton in New Caledonia. The image is taken from "Illustrated Travels" by Henry Walter Bates, published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London. New Caledonia, a French territory in the South Pacific, was a popular destination for European explorers during the 19th century. In this photograph, Chatton, a native Kanak man, is shown in his professional attire, dressed in a European-style shirt and holding a ruler in one hand and a book in the other. His direct gaze towards the camera adds an engaging and personal touch to the image. The photograph provides a glimpse into the early days of education in New Caledonia, where indigenous people were being integrated into the European educational system. Chatton's role as a schoolmaster was significant as he served as a bridge between the two cultures, imparting knowledge to the next generation of Kanak children. The photograph is a testament to the complex history of New Caledonia, where European influence intersected with indigenous traditions. The image also raises questions about the power dynamics at play during this period, as Chatton, a local man, was employed by the British to teach in a colonial setting. Overall, "Chatton, Native Kanak Schoolmaster; Some Account of New Caledonia" is an essential historical document that sheds light on the intersection of education, culture, and colonialism in the late 19th century. The photograph's enduring appeal lies in its ability to capture a moment in time, offering a glimpse into a fascinating period in the history of New Caledonia and the Pacific region as a whole.
