PICASSO,S, Photographs by Paul-Émile Miot. The invention of Paradise 1845-1870, München 2008. Hard cover 25 x 30 cm. 161 pag. with 55 full-page photo's and panorama's and 20 full-page drawings by C.C.Antique (1845/46) and C.Shipley(1846/48). CONTENT: Photographs from the 1869-1870 Polynesian excursion [Tahiti and the Marquesas Islands] of the French Navy Commander, Paul-Émile Miot (1827-1900). When the French Navy Commander Paul-Émile Miot was sent to Oceania on the Astrée in 1869, he took his camera equipment along, as he had on his previous expeditions including the one to Newfoundland. The photographs taken on the Polynesian journey and published for the first time in this illustrated volume are unique, not only because they are the first photographic record of the South Sea people. Miot took extraordinary care with the composition of his views and the staging of his portraits. In his pictures he seems to have wanted to capture a paradise as the Western world of the 19th century liked to imagine it.
