EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Poedua (Poetua), the daughter of Oreo, Chief of Ulaietea, one of the Society Isles. Painted by John Webber in 1785, this oil on canvas artwork measures 144.3x92.7 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Poedua's story is as intriguing as her portrait suggests. Born around 1758 to Oreo, King of Ulietea, she was taken hostage aboard HMS Discovery during James Cook's third voyage. This painting depicts her against the backdrop of Raiatea, the second largest island in French Polynesia. The artist skillfully portrays Poedua with an air of sensuality and regality. She stands draped in exquisite fabric while holding a fan delicately in her hand. The tropical setting is enhanced by palm trees that frame her figure beautifully. Poedua's Polynesian heritage shines through every brushstroke; she embodies both exoticism and elegance. Her bare breasts symbolize cultural norms at that time and add to the allure of this mesmerizing portrait. This remarkable piece showcases not only Poedua's physical beauty but also highlights her status as a princess within society islands' royal lineage. It serves as a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance. With its rich colors, intricate details, and timeless appeal, this painting immortalizes Poedua's grace for generations to come.
