The print showcases an array of native people from different regions and ethnicities, providing a fascinating snapshot of their unique identities.

Finally, at the bottom row stand Palau Islanders, Caroline Islanders (from Micronesia), Sandwich Islanders (Hawaiians), and Negrito people hailing from the Philippines. The fine art technique employed here is wood engraving - a meticulous process that captures intricate details through etching on woodblocks. This method beautifully highlights each subject's distinct features and traditional attire while preserving historical accuracy. Beyond its artistic value lies a deeper appreciation for ethnocultural history. This print serves as a testament to the rich tapestry of Asian and Pacific Islander cultures that have flourished throughout time.
