Pacific Islands Fiji Tahiti Samoa Woman Flower Crown Vtg. Photo 19thC.
£10.00
Pacific Islands Fiji Tahiti Samoa Woman Flower Crown Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a young Polynesian woman, possibly from Fiji, Tahiti, or Samoa, posing topless for a studio portrait. She wears a flower crown and a patterned wrap around her waist. In the late 19th century, Western photographers often created such images, which catered to a European and American fascination with the perceived exoticism of the Pacific Islands, blending ethnographic documentation with romanticized ideals of the 'noble savage'.
