Rare original, antique prints of the people of Australia and Oceania, their habits, customs and fashions. The travels of explorers such as Captain Cook and Abel Tasman revealed a vast and remote part of the world to Europeans, with ancient cultures, many related through vast oceanic migrations acorss the pacific yet developing their own unique lifestyles. For example, The Maoris of New Zealand were renowned warriors with an advanced society and the people of Tahiti appeared to live a life of heaven on earth. The huge distance from Europe limited exploration for centuries, and antique illustrations of them were made following expeditions there which greatly interested people in Europe.
