EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from 1891 showcases the regal presence of King Kalakaua of Hawaii. The English artist beautifully captures the essence of this influential figure, who reigned over the Pacific island nation during the late 19th century. King Kalakaua's commanding stature is evident in his royal attire and dignified expression. Dressed in traditional Polynesian fashion, he exudes a sense of authority and cultural pride. His beard, moustache, and distinctive mutton chops further emphasize his strong character. The engraving not only highlights King Kalakaua as an important historical figure but also serves as a testament to the growing fascination with Hawaiian culture at that time. As American interest in exotic lands grew during the 19th century, images like this one allowed people to glimpse into far-off places such as Hawaii. This print by The Granger Collection offers a unique window into both fashion trends and political power dynamics of its era. It invites viewers to appreciate King Kalakaua's significance within Hawaiian history while also celebrating Polynesian heritage more broadly. Whether displayed in a museum or private collection, this wood engraving is sure to captivate viewers with its intricate details and rich symbolism. It serves as a reminder of an extraordinary king whose reign left an indelible mark on both Hawaii and the world beyond its shores.
