Fine etching by the maritime historian and etcher of the H.M.S. Dolphin arriving at Tahiti, 24 June, 1769 under the command of Captain Samuel Wallis. At daybreak they found themselves confronted by more than 150 canoes – the Dolphin had in fact arrived at the island of Tahiti, which Wallis named King George’s Island.
