EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Jean-Francois Galaup, Count of La Perouse, standing in front of the majestic statues of Easter Island (Rapa Nui). The image is taken from "Le costume ancien et moderne" by Ferrario, published in Milan in 1819-20. Jean-Francois Galaup was a renowned French explorer and naval officer who led an expedition to the Pacific Ocean during the late 18th century. In this photograph, he stands tall and confident amidst the enigmatic stone figures that have fascinated people for centuries. The statues of Easter Island are a testament to the incredible craftsmanship and ingenuity of the Rapa Nui civilization. These colossal monoliths stand as silent guardians on this remote Polynesian island, shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Leonard de Selva's expert photography beautifully captures both Jean-Francois Galaup's awe-inspiring presence and the grandeur of these ancient sculptures. The composition highlights their scale against the backdrop of lush greenery, creating a sense of wonder and reverence. This print serves as a visual time capsule, transporting us back to an era when exploration was at its peak. It reminds us not only of humanity's thirst for discovery but also our fascination with cultures that came before us. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we can't help but be captivated by both Jean-Francois Galaup's adventurous spirit and the enduring allure of Easter Island's iconic statues
