EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Man of New Caledonia - in 'Encyclopedia of Travels'" takes us on a journey back to the late 18th century. This exquisite engraving, featured in Grasset St Sauveur's renowned encyclopedia from 1796, showcases the rich cultural heritage of New Caledonia. In this image, we are introduced to an indigenous man from New Caledonia, proudly displaying his unique attire and traditional adornments. His striking presence is a testament to the diversity and beauty found within Oceania's vast landscapes. Grasset de Saint-Sauveur, a distinguished French editor and artist of that era, meticulously captured every intricate detail with great precision. The composition exudes elegance and respect for the subject matter while providing valuable insight into the exploration and documentation of distant lands during this period. Leonard de Selva's skillful photography brings new life to this historical masterpiece. Through his lens, we can appreciate not only the artistic value but also gain a deeper understanding of the cultural significance behind each stroke of ink on paper. This remarkable print serves as a reminder that art has always been an essential tool for preserving history and celebrating human diversity.
