top right: MAUA. / in Samoa / Jany 27/28, 1891
bottom left:
Deadright ..... / legs ..... color / the rest nat’relle’
bottom right:
This is a sketch of Maua, one of Seumanu’s men and / one of our crew in the two trips around the islands of Savaii & Upolu / Maua is not tattooed (so that his legs are not bluish looking as if silk / (blue black) drawers were worn). He ought to be tattooed, but I think is / afraid of the pain. He will make believe that it is uncivilized or perhaps / will trot out the Church, for he is a leader in prayer—in any small deviltry / as well. He is not handsome as you see; but he is intelligent—I thought / I could get him to sit on that account, as it is difficult to get natives to pose well, but he / could hardly keep quiet a minute. I had only a few hours to paint this in, I was at work / when the call was made for our boat to leave for Tahiti. Hence unfinished |
