EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Off to the Dubu Dance, British New Guinea" transports us back in time to the early 20th century. The vibrant color lithograph by Norman Hardy showcases a scene from the remote and mysterious lands of British New Guinea. In this image, we see a group of indigenous people embarking on their journey to the Dubu Dance, an important cultural event in their community. Their traditional attire is adorned with intricate patterns and feathers, reflecting their rich heritage and connection to nature. Each person carries themselves with grace and dignity as they make their way through lush vegetation. The artist's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this momentous occasion. We can almost hear the rhythmic beats of drums and feel the anticipation building up among these individuals as they prepare for a night filled with celebration and storytelling. This particular artwork was featured in "The Savage South Seas" a book written by E Way Elkington that aimed to shed light on the unique customs and traditions of British New Guinea during that time period. Through this photo print, we are reminded of the importance of preserving cultural diversity and celebrating our shared humanity across different corners of the world.
