EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Maori warrior of Souraki, located in the Hauraki Gulf of the North Island, New Zealand. The image depicts a proud and fierce warrior adorned with traditional face tattoos or Ta moko, which hold deep cultural significance for the Maori people. He is dressed in a striking striped cloak made from fibers known as muka and holds a broad-bladed paddle, symbolizing his connection to the sea and their renowned canoe culture. The artwork is an adaptation of an illustration by Louis Auguste de Sainson found in Dumont d'Urville's Voyage de la corvette l'Astrolabe. Handcolored by Pannemaker, this woodcut engraving beautifully captures the intricate details of the warrior's attire and expression.
