"Port Jackson, New Holland Natives from the River Nepean Region" is an engraving created by the artist Forget and published in 1825 by Alphonse Pellion. This work is part of the larger collection titled "Voyage Autour du Monde sur les Corvettes de l'Uranie 1817-20," which documents the global expedition led by French naval officer Louis de Freycinet. The expedition, which took place from 1817 to 1820, aimed to conduct scientific research and exploration, and it resulted in a comprehensive series of visual and written records of the various regions visited, including Australia.

The engraving captures the indigenous people of the River Nepean region near Port Jackson, now known as Sydney Harbour, in New South Wales, Australia. This area was one of the first points of contact between European settlers and the Aboriginal Australians. The artwork provides a visual representation of the native inhabitants during the early 19th century, offering insights into their appearance, attire, and possibly their way of life at the time.

Alphonse Pellion, who published the engraving, was a notable figure in the expedition, serving as an artist and draughtsman. His contributions were instrumental in documenting the diverse cultures and landscapes encountered during the voyage. The detailed and meticulous nature of the engravings, including "Port Jackson, New Holland Natives from the River Nepean Region," reflects the scientific and ethnographic interests of the expedition.

The publication of these engravings in 1825 provided European audiences with one of the earliest visual accounts of the indigenous populations of Australia. It played a significant role in shaping contemporary perceptions and understanding of these communities. The work remains a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the early interactions between European explorers and the Aboriginal peoples of Australia.
