EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving from 1837 showcases the Natives of the Aleutian Islands in all their glory. The hunter, clad in sealskins and armed with a kayak oar, stands proudly alongside his loyal hunting dog. Their connection to nature and skillful hunting techniques are evident in this detailed depiction.
In contrast, the shamans are adorned in sacred robes, exuding an aura of mysticism and reverence. Their traditional attire symbolizes their deep spiritual connection to the land and their ancient rituals that have been passed down through generations.
The intricate details captured by Sasso in this engraving bring to life the rich culture and traditions of these indigenous peoples. From the texture of the sealskins to the intricate patterns on the shaman's robe, every element tells a story of resilience, survival, and respect for nature.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a way of life that is both foreign yet familiar. The Natives of the Aleutian Islands remind us of our interconnectedness with nature and each other, urging us to preserve and honor our cultural heritage for future generations to come.
