EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the interior of a traditional New Guinea house in 1876. The unique architecture of this dwelling is truly remarkable, as it was built over the water with an open design that maximized coolness in the tropical climate.
The image provides a glimpse into the history and culture of Papua New Guinea, showcasing how indigenous people adapted their homes to suit their environment. The intricate details of the interior reveal a simple yet functional living space, where every element serves a purpose.
As we study this photograph, we can imagine what life must have been like for the inhabitants of this house. Surrounded by water and open to nature, they would have experienced a sense of connection with their surroundings that is hard to replicate in modern times.
Overall, this print is not just a historical document but also a work of art that captures the essence of traditional New Guinean architecture. It reminds us of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of people who lived harmoniously with nature long before modern conveniences existed.
