About the Item

Experience Kamchatka: 'Summer and Winter Habitations' Print from Cook & King's Pacific Ocean Voyage This antique print, titled 'Summer and Winter Habitations in Kamchatka,' offers a captivating view of seasonal dwellings in Russia's Kamchatka region. Originating from 'A Voyage to the Pacific Ocean Undertaken by the Command of His Majesty' by Cook & King, this print was engraved by S. Smith based on J. Webber's original artwork. Published in 1784, it provides a fascinating glimpse into the distinct living arrangements adapted to Kamchatka's contrasting seasons. Capturing the essence of Kamchatka's environment, the print is a visual testament to the explorative journey undertaken by Cook & King. The intricate details and craftsmanship of Smith's engraving after Webber's work portray the unique architectural and cultural aspects of these habitations. This piece is not merely a historic artifact but also a window into the discoveries and documentation of distant lands during an era of exploration. As part of the illustrious voyage chronicled by Cook & King, it stands as a valuable collector's item and a testament to the cultural diversity found across the Pacific.
