The upper one, based on an original by Wilhelm Gottlieb Tilesius von Tilnau shows a burial ground in Nuku Hiva with two effigies seated on a raised platform between two sheaves of bound stalks or branches. Two figures stand in the right foreground, and there is a columned shelter or dwelling in the right background, beneath rocky volcanic peaks (cf A-318-034, done in 1804 on Krusenstern's voyage). The lower image shows a canoe with a triangular sail. There are seven figures on board, the one at the left at the stern using a large paddle to propel the boat.

Charles Morris Woodford was born in 1852 and educated at Tonbridge School in England. He settled in Suva about 1882 and from Fiji visited Kiribati (the Gilbert Islands group), as Government agent on the ketch Patience. In 1886, as a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society he made the first of three successive explorations of the Solomon Islands, especially Guadalcanal, where he was the first white man to penetrate the interior to any distance, collecting natural history specimens for the British Museum. His experiences are described in his book, 'A Naturalist Among Headhunters' (1890). Quantity: 290 electronic scan(s) of original black and white photographic print(s).
