Lantern Slide (black and white); a young woman wearing a cloth wrap skirt and a long sleeved patterned top; the woman is carrying a plant fibre basket under her right arm, filled with a bundle of cloth for washing(?); in her left hand, the woman is holding onto a pice of rope, tied at the other end to a pig, which is grazing beside her; Polynesia. Location: It is unknown whether this image is photographed in Mangareva, or Raivavae. Overview of Routledge collection: This collection of lantern slides were photographed during two archaeological expeditions, conducted by William Scoresby Routledge and his wife Katherine Maria Routledge. The majority of the collection was photographed during the ‘Mana Expedition’ in 1913-1915 to Easter Island, which also stopped in Chile and Juan Fernandez Islands on route. Whilst in Chile, Routledge enlisted the aid of Chilean men and boys. One boy from Juan Fernandez is depicted in a number of images, used as a scale guide. Subsequent expeditions to Mangareva, Raivaevae, and Rapa Iti were made in 1921-1923, during which a smaller number of images were made. |
