Painting Description
"View of the Surroundings of Coupang, Timor, from Voyage Autour du Monde sur les Corvettes de L'Uranie 1817-20" is an engraving by Pomel, published in 1825 by Alphonse Pellion. This artwork is part of a larger collection documenting the global voyage of the French corvettes L'Uranie and L'Physicienne, which took place between 1817 and 1820. The expedition was led by Captain Louis de Freycinet, a prominent French naval officer and explorer, whose mission was to conduct scientific research and chart new territories.
The engraving captures the landscape and environment of Coupang (modern-day Kupang), a port town on the island of Timor in present-day Indonesia. This region was of significant interest during the early 19th century due to its strategic location and the presence of various European colonial powers. The detailed depiction in the engraving provides valuable insights into the natural surroundings and the built environment of Coupang during this period.
Alphonse Pellion, the publisher, was an artist and draughtsman who accompanied the expedition. His works, including this engraving, are noted for their precision and attention to detail, reflecting the scientific and exploratory aims of the voyage. The publication "Voyage Autour du Monde sur les Corvettes de L'Uranie 1817-20" is a comprehensive account of the journey, featuring numerous illustrations and engravings that document the diverse cultures, landscapes, and scientific observations encountered by the crew.
The engraving by Pomel is an important historical artifact that not only showcases the artistic skills of the period but also serves as a visual record of early 19th-century exploration. It contributes to our understanding of the interactions between European explorers and the indigenous populations of the regions they visited. The work remains a significant piece within the broader context of maritime exploration and the documentation of the natural world during the Age of Discovery.
