EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the regal presence of Tamehameha II, His Majesty the King of the Sandwich Islands, in 1824. The portrait was created by John Hayter, an English artist known for his skillful renderings of historical figures. Tamehameha II, also known as Kamehameha II, ruled over Hawaii during a crucial period in its history. The image showcases Tamehameha II dressed in a military uniform that exudes authority and power. As he gazes confidently into the distance, one can sense both his determination and wisdom. This portrait was taken during his visit to London - a fateful journey that would tragically end both his life and that of his queen. During their time in London, Tamehameha II and his queen contracted measles, which proved fatal for them both. This somber fact adds depth to this otherwise majestic portrayal. It serves as a poignant reminder of the vulnerability faced by indigenous peoples when encountering foreign diseases brought by explorers. Tamehameha II's reign marked an important era for Hawaii and its people. He played a significant role in shaping Hawaiian identity while navigating complex relationships with European powers seeking influence over the islands. Through this engraving, we are granted a glimpse into the life of this influential ruler whose legacy continues to resonate today.
