EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Tasmanian Aborigine from 1812, captured in stunning color lithography by the French School of the 19th century. The image is part of a private collection and provides valuable insight into the history and culture of Van Diemens Land, now known as Tasmania. The label on the print reads "Terre de Diemen" referring to an early name for Tasmania that originated during Dutch exploration of Australia. This illustration was featured in Francois Peron's Voyage de decouvertes aux Terres Australes, also known as Voyage of Discovery to the Southern Lands. The portrait portrays a male Aboriginal figure with head and shoulders visible, offering a glimpse into his profile. It serves as an ethnographic record, highlighting important anthropological details such as scarification patterns on his skin. These scars tell stories unique to his culture and experiences. Through this powerful illustration, we are transported back in time to witness the diversity and richness of Australian indigenous cultures. It reminds us of their resilience and deep connection to their land despite colonial challenges they faced. As part of The Stapleton Collection, this artwork sheds light on the historical significance not only within Australia but also within Oceania as a whole. Its inclusion in Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate its beauty while acknowledging its cultural importance for future generations.
