EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the maritime culture of Makassar, Indonesia. The print showcases a traditional proa boat gracefully gliding through the waters off the Indonesian coast. The proa is an iconic vessel in Southeast Asia, known for its unique design and efficient sailing capabilities. With its distinctive outrigger floats on either side, this particular proa from Makassar stands out as a testament to the rich seafaring heritage of the region. Published in 1878 as part of El Mundo en la Mano or The World in Your Hands series, this illustration captures not only the physical beauty of the boat but also evokes a sense of adventure and exploration that characterized that era. It transports us to a time when sailors relied on wind power alone to navigate vast oceans. The lithograph's monochromatic palette adds depth and texture to every line and curve, enhancing our appreciation for both craftsmanship and artistry. This exquisite piece serves as a window into history, reminding us of Indonesia's vibrant coastal communities and their deep connection with the sea. As we admire this print from our private collection today, let it inspire us to embrace our own spirit of discovery while honoring those who came before us - brave souls who sailed these very waters centuries ago aboard magnificent vessels like this one.
