EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph, captured by Friedrich Ratzel in the late 19th century, transports us to a time when Australian aborigines relied on their hunting skills for sustenance. In this particular scene, we witness a family of New South Wales natives skillfully butchering the spoils of their recent expedition. The image showcases the intricate process these indigenous people undertook to prepare their food. Men and women work together harmoniously as they gather around a fire at their campsite. Armed with spears and other traditional weapons, they expertly dissect a kangaroo - an iconic marsupial native to Australia. The vibrant colors used in this print bring life to every detail: from the rich reds and oranges of the flames dancing against the night sky, to the earthy tones adorning each member of this aboriginal family. It is evident that this artwork not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as an important historical record of Aboriginal culture and traditions. As we admire this piece, let us reflect on how it offers glimpses into both daily life and survival strategies employed by indigenous communities throughout history. The image serves as a reminder of our shared human experience across different cultures and continents while honoring the resilience and resourcefulness displayed by these Australian aborigines during an era long past.
