Painting Description
"T.1552 Canda, a Young Malaysian Girl from Timor" is a historical engraving that serves as plate 26 in the collection from the "Voyage of Discovery to Australian Lands." This work was engraved by B. Roger and published in 1807 by N. Petit. The engraving is part of a larger body of work that documents the early European exploration of Australia and the surrounding regions, including the islands of Southeast Asia. The image of Canda, the young Malaysian girl from Timor, offers a glimpse into the people and cultures encountered by European explorers during their voyages.
The "Voyage of Discovery to Australian Lands" is significant as it represents one of the many expeditions that contributed to the European understanding of the geography, flora, fauna, and peoples of the Australian continent and its neighboring islands. The engravings in this collection were often based on drawings made by artists who accompanied the explorers, aiming to record and illustrate the novel sights for audiences back in Europe.
As an individual plate within this collection, "T.1552 Canda, a Young Malaysian Girl from Timor" not only holds artistic value but also serves as an ethnographic record, reflecting the European perspective and representation of indigenous peoples during the era of exploration. The depiction of Canda is important for understanding the ways in which indigenous individuals were portrayed and how these images may have influenced contemporary and subsequent perceptions of these communities.
The work of B. Roger as an engraver and N. Petit as a publisher is part of the broader history of printmaking and publishing during the early 19th century, which played a crucial role in disseminating knowledge and imagery from distant lands to the European public. The engraving is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship involved in printmaking at the time and stands as a historical artifact that captures the intersection of art, exploration, and cultural documentation during the Age of Discovery.
