EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the unique and innovative design of a "Proa of Pacific Islands" from the late 19th century. The image showcases a "Flying proa of the Ladrone Islands (= Marianas)" utilizing an outrigger design for efficient transport across the vast Pacific Ocean.
Dating back to circa 1880, this historical photograph provides a glimpse into the regional maritime history of the Marianas region. The intricate details of the proa's construction highlight the craftsmanship and ingenuity of indigenous boat builders in creating vessels perfectly suited for navigating ocean waters.
The use of outriggers on these traditional boats not only provided stability but also allowed for greater speed and maneuverability, making them essential for travel between islands in the Pacific archipelago. The flying proa's sleek silhouette cutting through the water is a testament to its effectiveness as a mode of transportation in this remote and isolated region.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this important piece of maritime history, offering viewers a window into a bygone era when these unique watercraft were vital to daily life in the Pacific Islands. This stunning print serves as a reminder of our shared human connection through innovation and adaptation to our natural environment.
