Une Jeune Fille De Fidji, Oceanie

"Une Jeune Fille de Fidji, Océanie" (A Young Girl from Fiji, Oceania) from 1935 is one of Jacoulet's Fijian portraits — a young Fijian woman rendered with his characteristic chromatic richness and dignified portraiture. Fiji sits at the cultural boundary between Micronesia and Polynesia, and its peoples' distinctive appearance and dress gave Jacoulet visual material that expanded beyond his predominantly Micronesian Pacific subjects. The 1935 date places this among his most productive Pacific years.
