This print titled "TAHITIAN MAN, c1920" takes us back in time to the enchanting island of Tahiti. The portrait captures the essence of a nameless Tahitian man, his strong presence emanating from the image. Dressed in traditional clothing consisting of a sarong and an intricate headdress adorned with a wreath, he stands tall with pride. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the bunches of Fei bananas that he carries effortlessly on his shoulder using a sturdy carrying pole. These vibrant yellow fruits symbolize abundance and sustenance in Tahitian culture, showcasing the vital role they play in their daily lives. The interior setting adds depth to this composition, suggesting that it was taken within a local dwelling or perhaps against a backdrop representing their rich cultural heritage.
