EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, titled "Kamehameha I (1758-1819). King of Hawaii Island. Hawaiians, 1819. Kamehameha and his warriors," offers a captivating glimpse into the history of the Hawaiian Islands during the reign of their legendary monarch, King Kamehameha I. The image, created by the skilled hand of E. Bayard and published in "The Illustrated World" in 1880, depicts the great king and his esteemed warriors gathered in an open-air setting, likely on the lush and tropical Hawaiian landscape. King Kamehameha I, dressed in traditional Hawaiian attire, is shown seated on a large tree stump, his regal presence exuding authority and wisdom. Surrounding him are his trusted warriors, both men and women, all adorned in the vibrant colors and intricate patterns that represent their Hawaiian heritage. The children, also present, add a touch of innocence and joy to the scene, highlighting the communal nature of Hawaiian society. The Pacific Ocean, a constant presence in the lives of the Hawaiian people, serves as a backdrop to this powerful image. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of a time when the Hawaiian Islands were a thriving kingdom, ruled by a great and respected leader. King Kamehameha I is remembered as the unifier of the Hawaiian Islands, bringing peace and stability to the region, and this image serves as a testament to his enduring legacy.
