EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by William Hodges transports us back to the stunning Bay of Islands (Dusky Bay) in New Zealand, circa 1785. The intricate details capture the essence of Maori culture as a family is depicted against the backdrop of majestic mountains and crystal-clear seas. The Maori family featured in this print exudes a sense of unity and tradition, with each member adorned in traditional attire that speaks volumes about their rich cultural heritage. The woman's graceful demeanor and the man's stoic presence are complemented by the innocence of the baby cradled in her arms, symbolizing hope for future generations. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of the resilience and strength of indigenous peoples who have called these lands home for centuries. The tools scattered around them hint at their resourcefulness and connection to nature, while the vast expanse of sea before them represents endless possibilities and exploration. Through Hodges' masterful artistry, we are transported to a time when New Zealand was still untouched by modernity, allowing us to appreciate its natural beauty through his eyes. This engraving serves as a timeless reminder of our shared humanity and interconnectedness with nature, urging us to cherish and protect our planet for future generations to come.
