EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the essence of the People of Tahiti, showcasing the traditional attire of a man and woman from the largest island in the Windward group of the Society Islands in French Polynesia. Located in the southern Pacific Ocean, Tahiti is steeped in rich history and culture, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the past. The man wears a simple yet elegant outfit, consisting of a white tunic, or "maro'i," which is tied at the waist with a sash, or "savage," made of tapa cloth. His hair is styled in the traditional Tahitian way, with a topknot or "pu'e," which signifies maturity and wisdom. The woman, adorned in a stunning Tahitian dress, or "pareo," made of colorful fabric, wears her hair long and loose, adorned with fragrant flowers. Her neck is adorned with a necklace, or "nehe," made of shells, and her arms are adorned with bracelets, or "tupuna," made of bone or shells. This photograph is taken from a book of national types and costumes from the early 19th century, providing a historical record of the traditional clothing and appearance of the Tahitian people. The backdrop of the ocean adds to the sense of isolation and mystery that has long fascinated the Western world about this far-off land. The People of Tahiti have a deep connection to their land and the ocean, and their traditional clothing reflects their respect for nature and their proud cultural heritage. This image serves as a reminder of the rich history and unique cultural traditions that continue to thrive in the beautiful islands of French Polynesia.
