EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the essence of French Possessions in Oceania during the late 19th century. The map showcases the Pacific islands that now form part of French Polynesia, an overseas territory of the French Republic. Among these islands are the Marquesas Islands, Society Islands, and Tuamotu-Gambier archipelago. Additionally, New Caledonia is depicted on this map as a special collectivity of France located in the southwest Pacific Ocean. The image not only provides a geographical representation but also offers glimpses into life within these colonies. A ship sails through turquoise waters towards the Marquesas Islands while indigenous warriors armed with spears and quivers stand ready to defend their land. The presence of boats signifies both trade and exploration between France and its colonies. With its rich colors and intricate details, this vintage card transports viewers back to a time when European empires sought to expand their influence across distant lands. It serves as a reminder of France's colonial past in Oceania and highlights the cultural diversity found within these territories. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the beauty of Oceania's landscapes and its historical significance as part of France's imperial legacy.
