Antique Views of New Caledonia

This category presents original antique views and prints of New Caledonia, a large island group east of Australia that drew European explorers during the age of Pacific discovery. Historic images typically depict coastal outlines, harbour approaches and natural features such as bays and promontories, reflecting the navigational priorities of early chart-makers.

Many prints are based on sketches made by explorers, naval officers and surveyors during 19th-century voyages, later published as engraved or lithographed views in atlases and geographical works. These images capture how New Caledonia was understood and represented by Western audiences at a time when its interior and complex coastlines were only gradually mapped.

Antique New Caledonia views are prized for their historical significance, rarity and connection with early Pacific cartography. As original period works on paper, they provide collectors and researchers with visual documentation of island landscapes during a formative period of exploration and exchange.
